Is computer technician a saturated profession?

[codescript94]

In my country, the profession of computer technician has been becoming more saturated with each passing year. I believe this is because information is becoming more and more available to people who want to learn the subject. There was a time when they paid very well for assistant level positions, but nowadays only programmers earn well here. And in your country, is this profession well paid?

Computer technician is in nowhere saturated. It takes a great deal of technical training to become a computer technician and that is why it is not saturated.

I think they are more saturated now, especially in the digital age, as people have decided, and continue to decide, to pursue careers as computer technicians.

There are only very few computer technicians that I know around. That's why I always have to book my technician in advance to come fix issues with my laptop.

Computer technicians that deal with hardware are not even enough in circulation. We wait days before we get a technician to come fix our office PC.

If you look at hardware part then it is not. Most stuff you can't fix anymore and it is just send to trash.

The hardware part is interesting, for me at least it is the easiest to learn.

The computer technicians are not marketing themselves well, I have a large number of computers and laptops which are not working. I am finding it difficult to get reliable technicians to check the hardware and repair them.

If anyone should ask me, I would say we need more computer technicians, technicians that are actually good with computers.

In the country, the trend now is to repair cell phones and smartphones in general, the market is paying well for those who work in this area.

I'm noticing such a mishap, as I currently live in the same country of yours. My husband is a computer technician and he sees how much this profession is saturated. He only gets family members needing a computer repairing, obviously for free, because they cannot pay for any service.

Same here smartphone repairs is also very popular and lucrative, this is because there are more people owning a cell phone compared to those who own laptops.

If one is a sound computer technician, they are so certain that they would make a lot of money because sound ones are kind of scarce.
