Job Search + Networking = ?


Free session for experienced managers & executives in Europe who are currently looking for a job (or getting ready for it): “Job Search + Networking = ?”.

The correct answer is: 27.33% and one of the four main job search channels that generate offers. But how do you network when you can’t network – at least not offline like we “used to”?

With the changes on the job market, experienced managers and executives don’t have the luxury of “skipping” networking entirely. You have to do it. Professionally. Elegantly. Systematically.

During this interactive meeting we’ll explain:
– how to audit your current network
– how to stay in touch with people you know
– how to continue building your network
how to craft messages on LinkedIn that are inviting and don’t reek of spam or desperation

Special Report – job market in Africa

Job Market in Africa - Special Report

Job Market in Africa – Special Report

With the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, we, Career Angels, wanted to understand how it actually affected the job market. We started to observe and analyze the changes that it brought. We have been gathering weekly data (unemployment and the number of LinkedIn job ads) and closely observing the situation across the EU since March 2020. In mid-September, we decided to extend our job market observations to a total of 80 countries on all continents – well, almost all – we do not track what’s happening in Antarctica. Tracking the demand for candidates, that is – if and how much companies are hiring, gives quite a good feel of the overall trend on the global job market.

This is an updated version of our report on the African job market. We summarized 25 weeks of the COVID-19 effects on the oldest continent.

LinkedIn job ads – market analysis (Week 11)

Full Week 11 Market Signals report showing winners: BENELUX, Belgium and Losers: Northern Europe, Norway

Full Week 11 Market Signals report showing winners: BENELUX, Belgium and Losers: Northern Europe, Norway

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.
