Demand for candidates – job market report

Market Signals Report Week 09

 

Market Signals – where do they come from?

We started by monitoring the number of LinkedIn job ads in 18 European countries in Week 13 of 2020 (mid-March) – and extended our observations to ultimately all European Union countries since Week 15. This allows us to measure a KPI that gives quite a good feel of the overall trend on the job market.

Career Angels analyze the collected figures and complement the quantitative data with detailed and personal statements & insights of CEOs, HR Directors, investors, board members, candidates and headhunters that we know personally. We observe if and what kind of trends there are to leverage them into better candidate management & more effective job search methods.

Career Advisory postgraduate studies – after the fifth weekend

“I am looking for a job that matches my experience, but outside my current industry. How do I stand out among candidates who know the industry?”, “I am looking for a job in a field in which I have no experience. How long can such a process take?”. These are very common challenges a candidate faces in a rapidly changing job market. During the fifth weekend of the Career Advisory postgraduate studies, the following topics were discussed: assessment of career goals in the context of market realities and dynamics, and Candidate Positioning – defining a client’s “unique selling proposition” on the market.

Career Consultant Diary: Brutal reality of COVID-19 consequences

Being a Career Consultant for Executives is often misunderstood or romanticized or both. Sandra Bichl, founder of Career Angels and experienced international Career Consultant, decided to bring more transparency to her/our profession by sharing random days of her work in the form of a “diary” – the delay (sometimes of a year) ensures confidentiality. Below a comment from a client facing the brutal reality of COVID-19 consequences.

Job search KPIs for executives as of 2022


Free session for experienced managers & executives in Europe who are currently looking for a job (or getting ready for it): “Job search KPIs for executives as of 2022“.

How do you know if your job search is objectively going well… or bad for that matter? There are job search KPIs that are relevant to experienced managers and executives:
– minimum thresholds to make the job search channels work
efficiency of job search channels (based on accepted job offers)
– response rate
interview rate
– 1st interview to 2nd interview to shortlist/offer rate
market dynamics (unemployment vs. available opportunities)

Those KPIs change over time: effective career advice on job search from 20 or 15 or as little as 6 years ago, would now be ineffective or even harmful to active candidates.

During this interactive meeting we’ll look at:
– all of the above-mentioned KPIs
– the most effective job search strategy for experienced managers and executives as of 2022!

In other words, after this meeting you’ll precisely know what (and how) to improve in your job search efforts.
