The adoption of robotic process automation and other various flavors of intelligent automation is continuing to grow as businesses accelerate their automation initiatives in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Experts predicted this could lead to an increase in several existing business, development and technology-related jobs, as well as the emergence of new RPA job descriptions. Some experts also predicted that RPA efforts could enable enterprises to consider creating new types of roles in the future.
In the short run, the adoption of RPA will drive the demand for a variety of existing roles in business, development and support, and machine learning categories, said Amardeep Modi, practice director at Everest Group, a management consultancy and research firm.
