Data Everywhere !!!

idea posted by Umesh Kumar Pandey Sales/BD Manager, Covansys
According to me anyone who can work with data and build industry-specific reports will always be in demand irrespective of circumstances. The information revolution is producing mountains of digital data that are becoming more and more challenging to process and analyze. This space will be unaffected during this period.....

Data is always the big thing. Data Management will always be in demand. Changing regulations, changing business rules all impact the data. Data knowledge with industry knowledge is great combination.

Yes, i agree with you, the volume of unstructured content will always be increasing, adding to the proliferation. To help organizations get business value out of all this data, business intelligence (BI) specialists will be in demand in this phase also....

Web/Graphics Design

idea posted by Smitha Krishna Graphic/Web Designer, Freelancer

The applications of the Web/Graphics design domain are various....In the fields of Information Technology, Education, Advertising, Medical, Print, Television, Films, and the list can go on. To say it in short, it has a wide spectrum of applications. So if there is a crunch in one field, design professionals can jump to stabler field.

Hi Smitha, well said. Web and graphics nowadays are involved in almost every field. So if recession affects one sector the other sector will help us. This is considered to be the best profession compared to other.

Legacy Support Jobs

idea posted by Madhusudan Software Developer, MindTree Ltd
I believe support/Maintainance jobs which include legacy systems such as Mainframe components are relatively stable.

The service industries taking crae of the basic needs will have to go on- recession or not.

Telecommuniction, Railways abn oter transport systems, Hospitals, Public Distribution, Schools and other educational institutions etc. are not really recession proof but will have to go on, unlike many other industries that are likely to become bankrutp and shut down.

ERP is an IT business that would help to bridle recession. By introducing right resourse planning, the industries and cut the flab and cope up with reduced budgets and curb in resources.

Yes, i do agree with what you said. But like to add saying most of these Maintainance/production support may be offshored to cut cost.

Add your argument:

Systems maintenance

idea posted by Ranjan Saha Sales/BD Manager, Kanbay Software
Hi Umesh, systems maintenance is another field which is evergreen & unaffected due to systems everywhere which require strong help desk or desktop talent all the times.

Ranjan very true, Companies are cutting down on many things, but still they have to maintain and utilize all the systems. The core areas like networking administration, tech support, and database management will also remain unaffected.

Add your argument:

Web 2.0 Technologies

idea posted by Vivek Panwar Project Lead, Unisys
Nowadays web 2.0 technologies are in demand, so people who know AJAX and Ruby on Rails will not be affected.
