Full Week 23 Market Signals report showing winners: Spain, Southern Europe and Losers: Croatia, Southeastern Europe

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.

How to be interviewed and get a job when there are so many strategies the interviewers use to get to know the candidates better? You should definitely avoid the so-called “ping-pong style” conversation. Remember that you only get one chance to introduce yourself and to convince the decision-maker that you’re “the one”. But don’t go overboard: the more natural you are, the better!

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: “I got invited for an interview […] and the recruiter asked me for my CV, therefore I sent the one I had prepared based on Open Webinars. During the interview, I was answering questions using the STAR method. Then I got invited for the second interview. A big thank you to Career Angels for providing such useful tips!” (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 how to be interviewed to get a job.

Clients’ results

Over the years, we have had the chance to work with hundreds of managers and executives and have conducted thousands of career consultations. During all these years a lot has changed – the job market, client needs… we constantly try to follow all these changes.

What remains the same is the success of our clients. We are extremely happy with each and every success of them and that is why we are proud that 75% of our clients have found a satisfying job, 16% decided not to change, usually despite having job offers and 9% of our clients decided to set up their own company.

Is there something that you might need support in? Or something that you’d like to discuss or have a second opinion on?
