El mercado ya no busca una habilidad estrella: la ventaja está en combinar
Esta nueva edición del Barómetro E&E de las habilidades más demandadas mantiene la estabilidad en las 20 primeras posiciones. Pero la estabilidad del ránking no impide que se aceleren los cambios relevantes: las habilidades se especializan, la IA redefine funciones y algunas capacidades ganan impulso cada nueva semana. Leer
The job market is shifting away from seeking sole technological stars, instead valuing a combination of skills. As artificial intelligence becomes more prevalent, data on vacancies and salaries reveal a change: many jobs now reward professionals who can bring together capabilities that seldom appear together. It's no longer sufficient to ask which jobs AI will disrupt; rather, the market is undergoing a less dramatic but likely more significant transformation in the types of skills companies demand.
Possessing knowledge of AI has grown in value, alongside expertise in cybersecurity, data management, software development, and advanced digital skills. However, the most sought-after professionals today are those who can seamlessly integrate such knowledge with judgment, analytical abilities, communication, leadership, business acumen, and risk management.
This is not merely a perception among human resources departments; extensive labor market studies are beginning to uncover this trend in the data. The 20 most sought-after professional skills (as of August 29 to September 4) were gathered on August 28, reflecting the global labor market situation during the week of August 24 to 30, 2026.
The ranking will be updated weekly, preserving historical data and comparisons to detect more precise trends and relationships.
