Market Signals Special Reports – Job market vs COVID-19

As the COVID-19 pandemic came and shook the market, at Career Angels we decided to observe and analyze the changes that it would bring. We have been closely observing the situation since March, when we first started to gather weekly data: the number of LinkedIn job ads, initially in 18 European countries that we extended to 38 in April. In mid-September we decided to extend our job market observations with a focus on LinkedIn even further, to countries outside Europe to gain a more global insight. We currently monitor 80 countries all over the world and can provide data from almost every continent – this allows us to measure a KPI that gives quite a good feel of the overall trend on the global job market. To have a deeper understanding of what has been happening, we contacted in total almost 300 CEOs, board members, HR Directors, investors, headhunters & Executive Search Consultants as well as candidates and asked for their insights, opinions, predictions and advice that we started publishing alongside our quantitative data in the form of weekly reports accessible by everyone.

– most effective job hunting channels for executives
– response rate, interview rate

Where do market signals come from?

The art of interpreting signals (precursors of trends) is – and always has been – important in navigating financial markets and economies. If you are an experienced manager or b who wants to manage their career and/or job search processes wisely, look at the signals of the job market which are inseparably embedded in the b landscape of today’s world.

Before there are trends, there are market signals, which we usually keep to ourselves. But these are not usual times, so we decided to share those market signals by the end of each week. If the country / context is important, we’ll add them. Otherwise, we’ll keep it general for confidentiality.
