Today, Identified is excited to release the first in a series of workplace white papers. We delved into our data to bring you some insights on the job market that you won't find anywhere else. Based on an unprecedented data set of 50 million Facebook profiles, the study is the first of its kind to analyze 1.2 billion data points on professionals’ work history, education and demographic data.
The “Revenge of the Nerds,” is a three-part series which explores how the rise of the engineer is impacting the American workforce. Over the last 10 years, the demand for engineering talent has grown dramatically. As a result, the salaries of engineers have increased rapidly, and the unemployment rate among them has remained extremely low compared to national averages. Identified Scores show engineers to currently be the most in-demand group with the highest scores across the board.
Our study aims to put some numbers behind a trend that has broad-reaching implications in the American economy.
