In particular, roles that require repetitive data entry, legal administration, careers involving math skills — even healthcare jobs — will all be impacted by AI’s adoption. Amid that backdrop, job seekers should ask a potential employer if they offer upskilling opportunities, as 89% of tech professionals use company-provided training opportunities to keep their skills up to date, according to Fagan.

“…With genAI gaining momentum, tech professionals feel pressure to upskill,” she said. “Most employers offer tuition reimbursement or upskilling opportunities, so it would be a missed opportunity not to take advantage. Additionally, adapting and integrating AI into workflows is becoming essential. By staying open to upskilling, particularly in high-demand areas and in AI integration, and considering flexibility in work location, tech job seekers can better navigate today’s tech job market.”

Sixty-six percent of employees say they are likely to remain at a company with mentorship programs, according to Indeed’s survey.
