Career website Dice.com is out with its annual
Linux Jobs market report and once again demand is growing. The report is
sponsored by the Linux Foundation, which does of course have its own
particular bias when it comes to Linux, though there are still a few
surprises in it.
"Based on our work with the community and our members, we know that
knowing Linux helps people move into positions with amazing
opportunities to work on really cool projects," Amanda McPherson, vice
president of marketing and developer programs, told /Datamation/. "But
when we see a stat like 86 percent of Linux pro?s saying that knowing
Linux has advanced their careers, we know that it?s not just anecdotal
and [we] are inspired to be able to support a community of professionals
who really care about what they do."
McPherson noted that more than half of Linux pros surveyed said they
chose a career in Linux because of their passion for the technology.
Overall though, she noted that the Linux Foundation isn't too surprised
to see demand for Linux talent continue to be high, even for three years
running now.
