Why specialized jobs like Payroll Specialist are more in demand these days?

It's surprising, but not entirely unprecedented that specialized jobs are more in demand these days. Type "specialized, in demand jobs" in any search field online and you'll be surprised with the results, which can yield positions such as "refrigerator technician", "dog trainer" and "translator/interpreter" for languages you thought were uncommonly needed for business and communication. The various job openings in fields previously not thoroughly explored are growing, which is always good news for those looking for a wider range of career options. However, this would consequently mean a more narrow and specific skill set to match the job. With the discussion of the possible "job-skill mismatch" opened last year and positioned as one of the reasons for the high unemployment rates despite the equally large number of graduates per year, could this mean that while there are more creative and innovative job postings out there now, it would still be difficult to land them without having to spend an arm and a leg on further education and training? That's where specialized training and short courses come in. In accounting, finance and human resources, for example, lie plenty of specialized jobs that might have been included in the traditional 4-year course. While there are some aspects of 4-year courses and short training courses that can't be compared and weighed against each other, the latter will cater to those seeking almost customized education and training that won't require a hefty investment in terms of both time and money. In finance and accounting, recently popular job postings include openings for bookkeepers, auditing and accounting clerks, or accounting staff adept in particular software and even tasks that overlap related fields. Type "Payroll Specialist" for example on Google or Yahoo! and see the surprising results. With payroll being one of every company's vital parts  of cost and operations, there's no room for small errors. Common mistakes such as misclassification of workers, poor record keeping and data entry and missing deadlines could put employers in hot water with government penalties and charges.  There's actually a Payroll Specialist Course being offered by Entrepreneurs Accounting Academy.
