Boa tarde amigos
Acabei de encontrar uma pesquisa que o Steven Haines fala a respeito do seu “next java job”, em outras palavras, quais as tendências do mercado e o que cresceu/não cresceu
Ele criou várias categorias referentes a “keywords” das vagas, e eis o resultado:
Table 1. Core Technologies
Keyword/Skill-Hits
J2EE-7520
Java-6389
JSP-2228
Java/J2EE-1733
EJB-1271
JDBC-1079
JMS-926
Servlet-409
J2ME-146
Table 2. Application Servers
Keyword/Skill-Hits
WebSphere-2155
WebLogic-1561 + 624 (BEA)
Tomcat-1587
JBoss-882
Jetty-22
Glassfish-17
[quote]Java is alive and well in the job market. In this article I reviewed the results of my informal and unscientific research into the Java job market: I searched Dice with specific keywords and captured the number of search results they generated. As you want to increase your marketability in a turbulent market, the results are clear.
When you develop your enterprise applications, you should become familiar with how to deploy and manage them in WebSphere, WebLogic, JBoss, and Tomcat. You can download all of these application servers at no cost (the commercial products have development licenses so that you can use them for your learning.) Do not assume because you can write enterprise applications that all application servers are the same. You do not want to claim that you are familiar with an application server that you are not and then struggle through it on the job. Take the time to learn it now.
As far as technologies, your time is best spent learning Struts, Spring, Hibernate, an AJAX framework, and JavaServer Faces. It is not trivial to learn each of these technologies, but develop a schedule, pick out a few good books, and build a sample application in each. In short, if you can add each of these technologies to your resume, you should have no problem finding a job. [/quote]
