Let’s think about how a real job interview looks like. If a very first thing that comes to your mind is a stiff question-answer conversation with a recruiter, you might have a stereotypical approach to this subject. Remember, every single contact with a headhunter, from a screening call to the meeting over a cup of coffee, is an interview. Always be prepared and don’t let anybody catch you off-guard!

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: “Open Webinars present huge and very valuable knowledge. You are a phenomenal company and I’m more than happy that I was given a chance of participating in the webinars. I recommend them to all my friends looking for a job.” (Senior Business 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 what is an interview and how a real job interview looks like.

Since April 2020, Career Angels has been:
– tracking the # of job ads published on LinkedIn across 80 countries (incl. 38 from Europe)
– regularly speaking with C-level decision-makers

If you are an experienced manager or executive 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 VUCA landscape of today’s world.

The qualitative & quantitative data is published under the name “Market Signals” – daily insights & weekly reports you can find on our:
– LinkedIn
– YouTube channel

Full Week 24 Market Signals report showing winners: Visegrad, Czechia, and Losers: Iberia, Spain

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.
