Is summer a good time to be looking for a job actively?
Is summer a good time to be looking for a job actively?
If you review our content, you’ll find that we have always been proponents of using summer to at least prepare for active job hunting in autumn: creating a list of headhunters, a list of companies, researching e-mail addresses, optimizing application documents and fine-tuning the LinkedIn profile.
And for those already in the middle of job hunting, we have always recommended to shift to third gear in summer instead of slowing down. Companies still have to recruit and the competition is away on vacation = it’s the perfect time to make a move.
Has our opinion on the matter stayed the same? Or has summer of the infamous year 2020 changed the way we view summertime job hunting?

Market Signals (Week 27)
The art of interpreting signals (precursors of trends) is – and always has been – important in navigating financial markets and economies. 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.
We usually keep the collected data to ourselves. But these are not usual times, so we decided to share our insights at the end of each week. If the country / context is important, we’ll add them. Otherwise, we’ll keep it general for confidentiality.
Introduction to Market Signals – weekly LinkedIn job market report (Week 27) [video]
Before there are trends, there are signals! One KPI that Career Angels track to observe changes on the job market is the number of published job ads on LinkedIn.

Sorry, summer is closed
On June 20, summer started in Europe… which we declare “kinda cancelled”. Why? After 3-4 months in partial to full lockdown, the economy needs to catch up, so there’s no time for a traditional summer break. If you are actively looking for a job, USE it to your advantage!
