Online & Flexible in 2020

Career Angels is a digital, premium career services boutique for experienced managers and executives, mainly in Europe. Our team has embraced technology and the life & work style that consequently is possible.

While logistically nothing changed in our day-to-day work in 2020 (we’ve been remote since 2013!), it did change what we did (and could do) after work. As you will see, some of our team members struggled to adapt to the “new normal” and for many, it was an opportunity to (re)discover their surroundings. View our presentation to find out how we usually take advantage of our flexible work style and what changed for us in 2020.

LinkedIn Reports for experienced managers and executives

Taking care of your online presence, especially your LinkedIn profile is paramount! It’s very likely you were excluded from not one, but many recruitment processes based on your LinkedIn profile without even knowing you were in it. That’s why experienced managers and executives entrust us with their LinkedIn profiles. They allow us to review them confidentially and objectively. And some of them then decide to ask us for help to fix them.

LinkedIn job ads – market analysis (Week 8)

Full Week 8 Market Signals report showing winners: Benelux, Netherlands and Losers: Southern Europe, Spain

Full Week 8 Market Signals report showing winners: Benelux, Netherlands and Losers: Southern Europe, 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.
