Joy is looking into many different career choices. she is leaning toward the information technology cluster. why would this be a better career choice than some of the other options she was looking into? it jobs are projected to increase fourteen percent between 2010 and 2020. it jobs are projected to increase twenty-two percent between 2010 and 2020. it jobs are projected to increase thirty-five percent between 2010 and 2020. it jobs are projected to increase forty-seven percent between 2010 and 2020

IT jobs are projected to increase twenty two percent 2010 and 2020.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) projected that IT jobs will grow at 22% between 2010 and 2020.

This translates to a growth of about 2% per year. While this might not seem like much, we need to compare the growth rate of the IT industry with the projected growth rates of other industries.

The BLS also provides a table of comparative growth rates and their interpretation in order to facilitate decision making. The table is given as an attachment to this answer.

From the table, we can infer that if an industry has a growth rate between 20% and 28%, it means that the industry is projected to grow faster than average. This also means that the demand for jobs will be greater.

That is why the information technology cluster might be a better choice for Joy than some of the other options she was looking into.
