Examining the Hottest (and Coldest) Tech Skills - Dice Insights

Click here to see this visualization in full-screen mode. Last year, Dice launched an interactive visualization, created by Simon Hughes, that broke down supply and demand for various tech roles. In this context, "supply" is the proportion of job seekers on Dice with a particular skill, while "demand" is the proportion of jobs listing that skill. We took those values and normalized them so that they sat on the same range; by dividing the demand value by the supply for a particular skill, we get a number that indicates how in-demand (or "hot") a particular skill is. This year, we've updated that visualization, incorporating some of the broader feedback we've received over the past 12 months.
