What tech hiring or job seeking trends
do you expect to see in 2023?


Matt McKinney BW

A major Toronto tech trend in 2023 will be the continuing growth of both businesses and workers from outside Canada gaining prominence here. Because of the easier nature of getting a work permit, more tech workers are moving to Toronto, and with relatively inexpensive labor compared to places like San Francisco, American companies are pouring more money into Canadian cities.

"For junior-level workers in the tech community, 2023 will be the year of contracting. With some companies looking to reduce costs, contracting will become a way for those getting their start in IT to get their foot in the door and establish experience. Those that thrive in that environment will then have their options open to be full-time or to continue on as a contractor in new positions."

"In 2023 the tech industry will see an increased spending and hiring in both Cloud Computing and Machine Learning. The increase in computing power due to the advances in quantum computing and AI has been a boon to tech companies, and continuing to advance in this sector will be key to success for many businesses."
