Career Angels was asked by Exparang, a Swedish HR-Tech company, that bets on data-driven Executive Search, to take a closer look at the Scandinavian job market and prepare an exclusive and dedicated “Market Signals” report. To understand how “job search-friendly” (aka competitive) a job market is, we analyze the changes in the number of LinkedIn job ads for 80 countries each week – this time we prepared a summary on the Nordics – Denmark, Finland, Norway & Sweden.
HR trends – potential threats
In the last 3 years, Career Angels delivered 187 trainings for 6735 people working in companies across various industries. We constantly monitor the job market and talk with experienced HR professionals and C-level executives to stay up to date with the newest trends.
And we know that new trends can be: exciting, modern, revolutionary, evolutionary… but are they always as positive and harmless as they seem? What are the potential threats?

Free session for experienced managers & executives in Europe who are currently looking for a job (or getting ready for it): “May the bots be with you!”.
AI is expected to replace 16% of recruitment sector jobs before 2029. These and other numbers show that technology wants to play the first fiddle on today’s job market.
A senior candidate who wants to be successful in their job search has to embrace technology and all that comes with it. But it’s easy to get lost, especially for those who haven’t looked for a job in a while.
During this interactive meeting, we’ll explain how to identify, understand and correctly maneuver elements of technology in every stage of the job search process, incl.:
– (chat)bots on the job market
– Applicant Tracking System
– LinkedIn algorithm
– pre-hire psychometric testing
– AI interviews

About & details: Bewerben in Zeiten von Corona: Besonders schwierig oder eine Karrierechance?
Unternehmen rekrutieren seit Anfang der Pandemie zwischen 50% und 70% weniger über LinkedIn. Die Arbeitslosenrate steigt weiter an. Die Aussichten sind entsprechend trübe…
Wie bewerbe ich mich als Executive unter solchen Bedingungen? Was funktioniert – und was nicht? Ist eine Bewerbung in diesen Zeiten besonders schwierig oder kann ich das jetzige Marktumfeld auch als Karrierechance nutzen?
Sandra Bichl freut sich darauf, all diese Fragen und noch viele mehr mit Euch am 20. April um 20 Uhr zu besprechen. Als ehemalige Executive Search Consultant unterstützt Sandra seit über 10 Jahren erfahrene Manager und Führungskräfte in ganz Europa in ihrem Karrieremanagement und in der Jobsuche.

(Has it changed at all?) Career Angels has been meticulously tracking so-called ‘job hunting KPIs’ and how they have changed over recent years – showing how drastically the job market has evolved for experienced managers and executives in 2020. And it’s very likely to stay that way. Join the webinar to get the answers for all of this questions (and even more) and find out how the job market has changed!
