摘要：Technical change has traditionally had a strong influence on the
economy. In particular, the quick advance of information
technologies (IT) has sparked drastic changes in almost every
productive activity, with skilled jobs being dramatically affected
by these changes. Although most white collar jobs were
apparently immune to change up until very recently, now
routine-based jobs are vanishing and the remaining clerical jobs
being forced to adapt. In this paper, we examine the impact of IT
on skilled jobs in Mexico. In so doing, we ask to what extent is
technological change affecting skilled jobs? Drawing on a
historical research on the weekly evolution of hiring offers for
six posts in a Mexico City's newspaper, we were able to identify
how traditional jobs have been petering out as more
sophisticated work positions have been coming along. Yet,
traditional manufacturing jobs seem to endure as demand from
productive firms remains strong in spite of the continuing
diffusion of IT. We conclude that modern jobs are no longer
defined by traditional skills but by multitask abilities, especially
in the service sector.
