  • There is high demand for CAD drafters. The roles of a CAD drafter and designer are very important in the engineering and architectural design process. They take designs from engineers and architects and turn them into technical drawings that can be used to build or manufacture products. Many companies are now using 3D printing technology, which means they need CAD drafters who can create 3D models. So the answer to your question is yes, CAD drafters are in high demand.

    There is high demand for CAD drafters. A recent study by the Associated General Contractors of America found that approximately three-quarters of construction firms are having a hard time finding qualified workers. This is especially true for firms in the residential and nonresidential building segments, where demand for skilled tradespeople is highest. CAD drafters are in especially high demand because they play an important role in designing and drafting construction plans. They work with architects, engineers, and builders to create detailed drawings of buildings and other structures. This allows contractors to build projects more efficiently and accurately.
