I’m not really surprised by this, but here it goes anyway. Dice.com did what it does and scoured the internet for job postings for specific fields. As of today, there are 987 jobs available on that site alone. In comparison, the iPhone is pulling more than 970.
It may appear that the iPhone has been beaten, but this doesnt take into account other terms companies might use to describe the services they need – such as iOS – nor does it take into account iPad developers.
Still, it’s comforting to see that Android jobs have grown in demand right along with the iPhone from just a year ago: iPhone ‘s 312 to Android’s 273. We can only hope that the growth in demand continues throughout 2011 as tablet versions of Android applications are created for a market that’s expected to blow up over the next couple of years.
