Unemployment rates vs LinkedIn job ads

How has COVID-19 changed the unemployment level? Do we have less unemployment than a year ago? Does it mean that the demand for candidates (the number of LinkedIn job ads) increased? Or is it the other way around? We took a closer look at the European unemployment rates and identified which countries noted an increase, a decrease, or a return to the unemployment level from before the COVID-19 pandemic after more than 1 year of its duration.

LinkedIn job ads – market analysis (Week 26)

Full Week 26 Market Signals report showing winners: DACH, Greece, and Losers: Visegrad, Cyprus

Full Week 26 Market Signals report showing winners: DACH, Greece, and Losers: Visegrad, Cyprus

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 38 countries in Europe since Week 15. This allows us to measure a KPI that gives quite a good feel of the overall trend on the global 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.

These are not usual times, so we decided to share our 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.

Final steps of an interview (video)

Final steps of an interview (video)

Inbox management and the power of follow-ups: why you should track statistics of replies to sent emails and do follow-ups.

Tracking the statistics of replies to sent emails to decision makers during job search is what we call “effective inbox management”. It is worth knowing how to correctly calculate the response rate and interview rate in order to draw conclusions about the efficiency of your job search process. The process is effective if the response rate is 30-50% and the interview rate is 5-10%, operating under the assumption that you send follow-up emails to those who haven’t responded to the first contact.

This video was recorded during one of the 16 webinars we produced last year that attracted over 1000 participants from all over the world who have spontaneously sent us feedback like this one: “Career Angels’ support and Open Webinars were a groundbreaking step in my job search process. They made me realise several important things that you need to remember when you want to be effective” (Manager)

Thanks to the overwhelmingly positive feedback, we’ve decided to design a course called “Every step of the job search explained – backed by research!” which you’ll find on Udemy. Here a sneak peek of the content on the introduction to the inbox management as a key tool in the job search process.
