Filed in archive Outsourcing Advisors on October 10, 2007

For people that are residing in countries which are affected by outsourcing, it is better to be informed rather than be caught unaware.

This opinion column written by Bill Snyder shows an interesting uptake in terms of analyzing the jobs which are likely to be outsourced. According Mr. Snyder, technical-based jobs are more likely to be outsourced as opposed to jobs that does not concentrate on such skills. Aside from that, the article also mentioned that jobs that combined business-savvy with technical expertise are more likely to remain.

Here is a piece of advice that you could use which was given by Stephen Pickett:

"Taking business courses while you're in school or when you have some spare time can separate you from the pack".

I think that taking courses would really help but of course, being productive is still a key in making you stand out.
