You could be an experienced software developer making a switch, a tech greenhorn just discovering your opportunities or anyone else in between.  You have probably seen how alluring freelancing in your work can be. The opportunities of becoming more independent, having the flexibility of time, and potentially making more money are benefits that attract many tech workers to be self-employed. If you're considering UK IT freelancing , here's an honest guide to the pros and cons of being self-employed: from the highs of remote working to the lows of not working full-time.   The Upsides Before we go into detail, we will explain to you why freelance opportunities can be attractive.  Flexibility  Flexibility is the most remarkable advantage of freelance tech jobs . Freelancers can carry their workplace in a backpack, so they can work in their homes, at coffee shops, or anywhere else where they have an internet connection. This leads to the independence they need. Therefore, they will be able to plan their work so that they can be with family and hobbies during their leisure time. High Earning Potential A self-employment approach rather than a traditional employment gives a higher income opportunity. Senior developers will have an opportunity to earn substantially more by using their expertise, negotiating rates, and undertaking more projects at the same time. Geographic Independence Geographical border challenges for freelancers are no longer an obstacle. Thanks to this geographical independence, it narrows down the communication gaps with clients, teams, or customers from different parts of the world and helps you build a large and diverse client base. Variety of Work The freelance pool offers many opportunities in web design, app development, and software development. Freelancers can do the work they are eager to do, matching their skills and interests, making the work meaningful and compensated. No Commute Freelancers spend valuable time and money on the road, and this can be a big plus for them in terms of saving time and reducing stress. This is, in fact, the good thing about UK IT freelancing because they can set their schedule and use the time saved from driving or commuting to other activities. Networking And Professional Growth Freelancing involves connecting and promoting oneself nearly all the time. Working with different clients and co-workers improves the professional circle and provides the chance for mentorship, collaboration and career advancement.   The Downsides Now, we will look at the difficulties that freelancing gigs face in the tech industry. Inconsistent Income The main drawback of working freelance in tech areas is the loss of a stable income. For freelance workers, the pay is not set and may fluctuate depending on the number of tasks they perform and the rate they charge. This can be stressful for people who are used to living on a fixed income, especially when paying monthly bills and supporting themselves or their families. No Benefits As a freelancer, you do not have the privilege of having health insurance, paid vacation or retirement benefits like the permanent team members. This implies that they must pay these expenses out of their own pocket, which can be very pricey. Furthermore, freelancer opportunities are not entitled to employer-subsidized learning and development programs, which curtails their professional development. Management Responsibilities Freelancers do all the paperwork – invoicing, tax administration, marketing, and customer communications. It is very important to accurately calculate the time spent on balancing the project responsibilities and project work which is the mysterious killer of the billable hours. Self-Motivation A self-motivated attitude and self-discipline are the keys to success in this contract work if one wants to be independent. Another great thing about them is that they could be their own boss, don't have to report to anyone and work with colleagues whenever they want. Freelancers also need to know how to organise their time and schedule tasks in order to meet deadlines and deliver the best work. Isolation The isolation that is a part of freelancing can be stressful for those who are used to working with teams in the office environment. When freelance workers lack a group of colleagues nearby to chat with or get things done, they can become lonely and likely feel isolated. The solution to this problem is to either involve oneself in online communities or networking events, and it is still necessary to think about it.   Conclusion Being a freelancer is both a blessing and a curse, a balance of freedom and flexibility with challenge and certain uncertainty. The level of success in this sphere depends on a delicate balance between utilising the advantages and eradicating the disadvantages as technology develops and the landscape of work is reshaped. Independent software development is so attractive because it still encourages brave individuals to experience this field, which is full of diversity and is always expanding. The attitude to easily change and adapt in this dynamic ecosystem is the keystone of the independent developers's way, where every project is a step toward perfection and development. Although the pros and cons are obvious, how to balance them will be more important depending on your situation, skills, and preferences. This might be true for one person but not for another one.
Your IT resume is the first thing you should get right before you go hunting for a job in IT. Hiring managers have to read through a stack of resumes before finding a suitable candidate for a particular position. So, a few seconds is all you have to catch the eye of the hiring manager. Whether you want to change your career after getting a degree or to search for a new job, use the descriptions below and our resume samples in IT to make your resume different from the rest. Throughout the recruitment process, employers look for employees with good skills among those who can do the tasks that are beneficial to the organisation. In your search for a job, tailor your resume to underscore your technical skills, experiences, and educational background. How are IT Resumes Different? Employers frequently use 'CV' and 'resume' synonymously. Understanding the nuances between these two terms can be a headache. This has made many job seekers doubtful about the resume format to pick, and sometimes, you’ll come across an ‘IT CV template’ and ‘tech resume example’ that are used in similar contexts. The point is that a resume is a one—or two-page document that includes your education, skills, and work experience. AND a CV is a document written to portray you as a skilled person with all the relevant details about your professional background (usually up to six pages). On the other hand, the classic long-form IT resume , which is more than a few pages long, is no longer worth it in the modern job space. When a hiring manager or tech employer asks you for a CV in the job requirements, it is just the norm to have the standard resume that usually consists of one- or two pages. Whatever you send them, whether a file called 'CV' or 'resume,' you will not increase your chances of an interview because of it. The Purpose of Your IT Resume The first paragraph of your IT resume is to briefly introduce you as a candidate for the chosen position, with the specifics of your skills, experiences, qualifications, and accomplishments. A recruiter or an employer will usually only take a few minutes while initially reading a resume. Therefore, the content that directly answers how you qualify for an interview must be clear and concise. Creating a Professional IT Resume The format you select will be the one you use to call attention to your job hunt. Here is how you do the IT resume building : Professional Experience In order to start formatting your resume, you will need to bring together all the important details. Make sure to have a take of the job description in front of you as you write your resume. To begin, make a list of all the jobs you have ever had, which contains information about your main responsibilities and how much time you spend working for that company. It is common to struggle with a good memory of long-back experiences of their past jobs if they haven't worked in several years. The fact that you will have all the information in place will enable you to write your resume fast and effectively. Choose the Format Take the format that shines the most light on how you would contribute positively to an organisation. A college student or an entrepreneur coming to work again in the field must give preference to a functional resume rather than a combination resume to highlight his earned skills. An executive who is an experienced person with a good work history may prefer to point out the name of their old employers. The resume will likely be the most effective if it is chronological or objective. Mention Your Contact Your contact information is definitely essential. Provide your full name, email address, and phone number (if any) along with your website link. Select an email that will be quick to look at and have no doubt about your professional profile . One approach is to put your name first and then use the dot(.) to promote a professional email. This means the employer can easily contact you for an interview. Others will decide not to mention a particular address as their home. This may not sound necessary, but you should leave the phone number with the area code and the email. Leaving out this information is also useful if you are applying for jobs that are at a commuting distance away from you, but you are willing to relocate to get them. Technical Skills Your technical abilities are useful because they will show the employer quite clearly how you can carry out some of the important tasks in the company. Along with the experience that appears in the job description, write the transferable skills and other relevant skills. If you have soft skills like communication, management, and problem-solving, use those in your account summary and work experiences. Your technology skills will usually be at the top of the CV after a qualification summary. Make sure to list your biggest capabilities at the top of your resume. This way, a resumé is made more concise and gives the employer an opportunity to extract vital details easily while, at the same time, the resumé is now more likely to be read. Professional Experience Firstly, all work history from the last 7-10 years should be included in your IT resume . Mention all the organisations which you have worked for together with the locations and the time they took, starting with the most recent one. Write them in a reverse chronological order of the employers you have had. Indicate the name of each employer, your title, and up to six bulleting items briefly describing your responsibilities and job duties. Please add a list under the heading of your most notable achievements of working with the team. You must write short sentences, but you should clearly describe the roles you were playing and present the achievements you made. Use only the month and year you spent at every organisation for this particular section. Career Summary The career summary is a general statement preceding the section representing your professional profile which is relevant to the job you are applying for. This segment will be placed towards the initial part of your resume building as 2-3 sentences that express what special skills, experiences, and education you have. It is the closing paragraph because you can write it as soon as you complete the other sections. How often should you update your IT resume? It is always good to keep reviewing your CV, especially in the tech world, where new developments in software, hardware, coding languages, and many others happen so fast that you can become as obsolete as a dinosaur if you ignore the updates. Reviewing your process of resume building and matching it with job descriptions for related roles in the niche industry may highlight skills you need to acquire to get hired for a job you desire. Even if you are not presently looking for a new job, ensure that you don't miss the opportunities by working on your IT CV and updating it whenever you learn a new skill or achieve something noteworthy at work. It's always more convenient to do it right away after each new experience rather than try to recall what you did weeks or months ago and collect evidence to support it later on. The Final Word Are you thinking about going back to school to gain new credentials and expand your opportunities in the IT field? IT Job Board offers online IT degree and certificate programs that can help you take your career to the next level. Our IT courses  are 100% online, giving you the flexibility you need while balancing work, education, and family.

These data analytics trends were forever changing to match the demand even before the pandemic started; after all, how will this market change over the next few months? Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, businesses faced immense disruption that entailed to data analytics capabilities of organisations to help them manage and address various problems. Understanding what is currently in vogue, the recurring modes of demand, and the skills necessary for employers is essential for those looking to pursue a successful career in data analytics. This paper focuses on defining the role of a data analyst and does another analysis to figure out its relevance in the UK job market. Increased Demand for Data Analysts in the UK: Also, recent statistics have shown that the demand for data analysts in the UK has risen.

But does this mean that freelance work is necessarily the right career path for IT support? With IT Support Jobs  growing rapidly, what benefits do full-time positions offer?

Pros: Cost-efficiency: With the highest hourly rates in the United States at around $70, independent development remains a more affordable option than hiring development agencies. Prices drop even further if you rent in Eastern Europe. Specialised skill sets: Most freelancers are highly specialised in one area and are therefore hired by companies They need more internal experience. Freelancers can become experts in their chosen field. Freedom and flexibility : You decide your schedule because you are the boss. If you do not want to work on Thursdays and Mondays but feel like working during weekends, that is okay. Do your best work in the morning.

Security: You must know that sensitive data and valuable project information you entrust to a freelancer cannot be protected as effectively as when working with in-house teams. Language barriers: When freelancers need better English skills, communicating with them can be problematic. Cultural differences can lead to misunderstandings in the future. Quality assurance issues: If you're not a programmer, there are fewer ways to ensure a freelancer does good work. Stress: You're suddenly responsible for your brand's marketing, finances, and projects with little to no guidance from your colleagues or boss. This, coupled with the pressure of maintaining a complete client list, can cause stress. Lack of benefits: You don't pay any money if you don't work. In the world of freelancing, you don't get paid, so there are no paid vacation days or sick days. And you won't have employer-sponsored health insurance if that's important to you.

Cons  Communication: Project and account management must be high to ensure effective team communication of ideas and tasks. Recruitment is very time-consuming and resource-consuming. You have to find someone who can take your job and give them a workplace along with equipment for work. 8-hour workday: Any emergency can wait until the next business day. If it happens before the weekend, it's even worse for you. Report to someone else: You will need to report to another person or people, which can be a big adjustment if you have previously worked independently. Additional tasks: Even if you have been hired to perform a specific role, such as IT support jobs, you may be asked to perform additional duties that go beyond your job description and skills. Gone are the days of working on the beach during the week and having lunch with your parents. In-house IT jobs mean you'll be expected to keep consistent hours and be available, even when working

Remote work is designed to make all or part of the tasks assigned by an employer outside company premises, usually from home. This is a fairly specific type of work, and although it may have no disadvantages at first glance, not everyone will like this type of work. Software developers must work remotely effectively, and companies must evaluate this. This article explains the effect of remote work by comparing its pros and cons in software engineering.   Pros of Remote Software Engineers Software Engineering requires a lot of time and the work of professionals with specialities, but working with them as one team helps achieve common goals. For this reason, remote work in software development offers numerous advantages for software companies:   Flexibility Flexibility is one of the main benefits of telecommuting . If a developer is working remotely, they have much better control over their own schedule, giving them some balance to maintain work & home life better. You can run errands, go to the gym or spend time with your loved ones without having to worry about work. This adaptability can also make them more productive.   Lower Business Expenses In the office workspace model, software development teams require physical office space, which can be expensive to rent or purchase. Additionally, the overhead costs associated with running an office, such as additional costs, insurance and office supplies, reduce income. Remote teams eliminate many of these costs, allowing software companies to use their resources more efficiently.    Global Talent Pool Despite your unique or specific needs, remote work lets you hire competent software professionals capable of giving the most efficient solutions. This is critical for small software companies that have to do more with resources to get the best candidates for the region. When they hire remote workers, the companies get access to the wider world for their talents, having more skills and experiences available.   Less Commuting The second positive aspect of remote working is that it provides little means of travelling. Commuting can also be a source of stress and a waste of time and money. Remote software developers avoid getting caught in traffic or facing delays due to public transit systems, which could help save time and lower work-related stress. You’ll also spend less on gas, parking and other travelling expenses.   Increased Productivity Working remotely increases the creativity and productivity of software engineering teams considerably. This enables them to work under circumstances that best suit them. It is not surprising, therefore, that their employees indicate better job satisfaction. Additionally, they do not have distractions like the office atmosphere. Consequently, they will likely produce better results than when working under the same roof.   Job Security Remote work provides job security for software developers. In traditional office jobs, layoffs and downsizing can be a problem. However, remote workers are not restricted to a particular geographical location, so they are confident about being laid off if the company reduces its physical offices. This makes the developers rest easy since they can focus on their work without worrying about losing jobs.   Cons of Remote Software Engineers Before we explore the countless benefits of remote work in software development, here are some of the most common challenges remote software teams face:   Lack of Social Interaction One of the most significant problems associated with remote work for software developers is isolation. The remote worker may feel isolated from their team and miss out on social interactions with colleagues. This can result in loneliness and disregard for the company culture. Software developers who work remotely must stay in touch and maintain their relationships with their colleagues.   Communication Challenges Virtual collaboration tools like email, chat and video conferencing are crucial in the remote working model. However, these tools are only sometimes reliable or useful enough, causing miscommunications or delays. Clear communication protocols should be developed where all team members use the same tools and platforms.   Lack of Structure Telecommuting requires self-discipline and structure. Software developers who work from home may need help to develop a routine that works for them. Without the structure of an office environment, it can be difficult to stay on schedule and tasks. To create structure in a remote work environment, software developers can set a daily routine, work hours, and a workspace for work.   Technology Issues This calls for a good internet connection, the latest hardware and software with backup and support to developers in case of problems with technology. Technical problems are also hard to solve while one is away from the office, and thus, one may experience reduced productivity and even frustration. Software developers can reduce those technical issues by employing long-lasting technology and working closely with their IT departments.   Time Zone Differences Remote teams often work across multiple time zones. And planning the virtual collaboration and executing team meetings the right way becomes a big challenge. Team members may need to adjust their schedules or work outside traditional business hours to accommodate these differences. Setting expectations for availability and communication in varying time zones is important.   Working Overtime Teleworkers will probably have to work longer hours than in the traditional office environment if they cannot create suitable boundaries between home and work life. This causes burnout at last and lowers productivity. Team members also need to develop and follow work schedules as they take breaks in between. After weighing the pros and cons, is remote work in software engineering wise, or are you more on the side of working in the office?
