The number of new IT jobs created in the US so far this year remains half of last year's levels, says a report from consulting firm Janco Associates.
According to an analysis of Bureau of Labor Statistics data by the consulting firm, 66,600 new IT jobs were created in the US in the first 10 months of the year (January-October) as compared to 114,000 jobs created during the same period last year.

The trend in the creation of new IT jobs continues below last year's, says MV Janulaitis, CEO of Janco Associates. "In reviewing the last 24 months of data on new IT job creation, it is very clear that there is a downward bias in the number of new jobs created," said Mr Janulaitis.
