LinkedIn job ads – market analysis (Week 6)

LinkedIn job ads – we’ve been keeping an eye on how their number changes since the beginning of the pandemic.

Full Week 6 Market Signals report showing winners: Baltics, Norway and Losers: DACH, Germany

Full Week 6 Market Signals report showing winners: Baltics, Norway and Losers: DACH, Germany

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.
