‘Tech-lite’ roles in ICT sector also need to be filled: Josephine Teo
The information and communications technology (ICT) sector is also looking to fill "tech-lite" roles, such as in digital marketing.
Minister for Communications and Information Josephine Teo said on Saturday (July 31) that aside from jobs that require people with tech skills, the sector also wants to tap the experience and knowledge of specific industries and sectors.
Associate Professor Keith Carter, from the National University of Singapore's School of Computing, said the common misconception is that it is hard to get into the technology sector. People who are interested to get into the sector should think about how their background can help them to succeed in this sector.
"We need everyone," he added.
