The COVID-19 impact on the European job market - a summary of 45 weeks
This special report summarizes 45 weeks of our observations when it comes to the number of published job ads on LinkedIn. The quantitative data has been completed with analyses prepared for each region and country for a full overview of the European job market situation amid COVID-19.
Why do we track and publish these reports?
The art of interpreting signals (precursors of trends) is – and always has been –important in navigating financial markets and economies. To manage career and/or job search processes wisely, it’s crucial to look at the signals of the job market, which are inseparably embedded in the VUCA landscape of today's world.
We’ve been keeping an eye on the number of job ads on LinkedIn in 18 European countries since Week 13 of 2020 – extended to 36, and ultimately 38 countries since Week 15 and 17 respectively – this allows us to measure a KPI that gives quite a good feel of the overall trend on the job market. We analyze the collected figures and observe if and what kind of trends there are, to leverage them into better career management & more effective job search methods.

Market Signals Report Week 18
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.

Collected Quotes from CEOs and HR Directors
Banking: In order to create space for business development we decided to focus on the new technology sector – business services, IT and e-commerce.
Electronics: We closed 2020 with a record in sales despite COVID-19. Our turnover has increased by 140% in 4 years and we employ almost twice as many people as in 2016.
Logistics & Supply Chain: On a business note 2020 was surprisingly good. We exceeded our sales expectations in CEE, but also in countries like Spain or Italy. Our services (tracking supply chains) worked very well in industries like FMCG, pharma, e-commerce & logistics.
Banking: The bank I’m employed in was supposed to be sold, but the transaction was frozen because of the pandemic. However, it will probably happen in one or two years.

Production: At the beginning of the pandemic we were forced to lay some employees off due to clients freezing their investments. Already in May, however, everything started functioning again.
IT: Our industry is doing well, we’re definitely not complaining about our results.
Banking: Our company’s strategy was clear from the beginning, and at first the employees were working readily. After the holidays, the decision to change the strategy was made. That became an excuse for some employees to lower their productivity.

Collected Quotes from CEOs and HR Directors
FMCG: Some companies have found themselves in difficult situations and payments are not coming through on time. One company has gone into bankruptcy. Because of the way the governmental help works, small businesses are doing worse than bigger ones.
Marketing: I can’t say our industry has been affected, everything is working well. In my company, there has been some restructuring – there is a new CEO. Some departments are being transferred to different countries.
Banking: There have been mass lay-offs – about 10% of roles have been reduced. This has caused some difficulties in doing our job. For the past 2-3 months, more and more people have been handing in their notice. It’s hard to believe that things can change for the better.
Manufacturing: The factory is and has been running at full capacity. In the last quarter, we made a profit. There have been zero layoffs, zero salary cuts. Others in the industry are actually starting to hire again.

Collected Quotes from CEOs and HR Directors
The vast majority of executives are with market leaders in their respective industries. By default, the board members are members of local boards; if not, we’ll indicate the exception.
Healthcare: The next step – going back to the office. We’ve been working remotely for the past few months and it probably won’t change for those cases that don’t require face to face meetings.
Telcom: We have actually noted gains ever since the pandemic started.
Big4: Clients are hesitant to invest in business consulting as it’s costly and requires traveling, which is now limited. In consequence, it’s harder to reach our targets.
And candidate quotes:
Director / Insurance: I was laid off due to customer retention and difficulties in implementing the budget.
CFO / Retail: Thanks to contacting headhunters, I have recently been invited to 6 interviews in 2 weeks. Those recruitment processes have been unfrozen after a few months.

We’ve continued reaching out to CEOs, HR Directors, investors, board members and candidates that we know personally, to take the temperature. Below you’ll find their shortened quotes in no particular order.
Finance: Our salaries were cut in spring and are still lower than before the pandemic. We have also been working from home.
Home appliance / Technology: The construction and home appliance industries are doing really well.
Construction: At the moment, 90% of the companies in our industry have a full set of orders. For now we don’t really feel any impact of COVID-19, but I predict that the private sector will slow down a bit in about a year – there will be less investments in shopping centers and offices.

Market Signals Report Week 41
Because of how we work when supporting our clients, we have a very unique “glimpse” into how over 5000 Executive Search companies and almost 20 000 decision makers react – the majority of which being located in Europe; and we collect and analyze how they respond; and we observe if and what kind of trends there are to leverage them into better human resources and career management & more effective job search methods.

Collected Quotes from CEOs and HR Directors
The vast majority of executives are with market leaders in their respective industries. By default, the board members are members of local boards; if not, we’ll indicate the exception.
Accounting / BPO: Our industry has not been affected yet, but we have started to plan how to react strategically in case it hits us. Our long-term contracts are safe, but we are aware that it might change. That’s why we are looking for an alternative approach and new possibilities. We can’t predict the decisions of the US global headquarters.
Telecommunications: Our results have been skyrocketing. The increased demand for better networks and online solutions has affected our industry in a very positive way.
And the Executive Search side:
After conversations with several Executive Search Consultants, with the exception of 2 firms (one international and one with a focus on DACH & CEE who claim to have record financial years), all other recruitment companies have shared that their turnover has decreased by 40-60%.

International consulting: Our sales have significantly dropped because of the international traffic restrictions.
Digital transformation: Finding clients online has become much harder than before. What’s more, we are looking for European and American suppliers, and because of the travel restrictions it’s not easy to cooperate. Apart from that, USA in mainly focused on the American companies, so our situation is difficult.
Investment fund: Many companies are being very cautious and have put their investments on hold. We can also see some political influence.
Finance: There have been some lay offs and reductions in our company, but it has more to do with the general situation of the group, not just our subsidiary.

A Quote from an HR Director
Insurance: Thanks to reaching a higher technological level we were able to become more efficient by shortening the duration of selected projects. We had a very good year in terms of reaching business goals. We reached higher employee satisfaction levels. We introduced a life harmony program (webinars on interesting spots in Poland, virtual yoga classes etc.). We take part in charity events, such as donating coffee, fruit, and vegetables to hospitals, orphanages, and shelters for single mothers.
We put a significant emphasis on strengthening our internal communications since 95% of our employees work remotely. This increased general motivation. We introduced weekly newsletters: information from the CEO, a series of articles about working from home – such as how to deal with time management, health and safety etc. Written communication has changed, e-mails are more concise and easier to understand. We also introduced a communicator which helps us complete tasks more efficiently.

Education: At the beginning of 2020 I managed to escape China and come back to Poland earlier than I planned. Thankfully, I found a job pretty quickly. Everything is remote.
Retail/Pharma: What changed is our case are the challenges that we have to face. ¼ of my team was laid off and it’s been hard to make up for it.
Cosmetics: I am responsible for new business and innovations – since the pandemic it’s been hard to present anything to the management board. The company has focused more on disinfectants than on our regular products (cosmetics).

Collected Quotes from CEOs and HR Directors
FMCG: Some companies have found themselves in difficult situations and payments are not coming through on time. One company has gone into bankruptcy. Because of the way the governmental help works, small businesses are doing worse than bigger ones.
Marketing: I can’t say our industry has been affected, everything is working well. In my company, there has been some restructuring – there is a new CEO. Some departments are being transferred to different countries.
Banking: There have been mass lay-offs – about 10% of roles have been reduced. This has caused some difficulties in doing our job. For the past 2-3 months, more and more people have been handing in their notice. It’s hard to believe that things can change for the better.
Manufacturing: The factory is and has been running at full capacity. In the last quarter, we made a profit. There have been zero layoffs, zero salary cuts. Others in the industry are actually starting to hire again.

The vast majority of executives are with market leaders in their respective industries. By default, the board members are members of local boards; if not, we’ll indicate the exception.
Healthcare: The next step – going back to the office. We’ve been working remotely for the past few months and it probably won’t change for those cases that don’t require face to face meetings.
Telcom: We have actually noted gains ever since the pandemic started.
Big4: Clients are hesitant to invest in business consulting as it’s costly and requires traveling, which is now limited. In consequence, it’s harder to reach our targets.
And candidate quotes:
Director / Insurance: I was laid off due to customer retention and difficulties in implementing the budget.
CFO / Retail: Thanks to contacting headhunters, I have recently been invited to 6 interviews in 2 weeks. Those recruitment processes have been unfrozen after a few months.

This allows us to measure a KPI that gives quite a good feel of the overall trend on the global job market.
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.
Collected Quotes from CEOs and HR Directors
Health: Following a merger in 2020, which resulted in staff reductions, COVID slowed the business down considerably and halted expansion. Neither us, our competitors nor business partners are hiring. This means that people have to look for work outside their areas of expertise.
Logistics: The business suffered due to CV-19. We had to adapt to a new way of working, develop a new strategy. Luckily, the quality of work didn’t decrease.
Pharma: Overall, the pandemic hasn’t had a negative influence on the profits – our sales actually increased by 3% in 2020 compared to 2019. We did, however, have to lay off almost a third of our employees.

Collected Quotes from CEOs and HR Directors
Tourism: The lockdowns and travel restrictions froze the business and meant we had to reimburse a lot of our regular customers, which is not something many of our competitors did.
Manufacturing: A smaller number of clients caused our profits to drop. I’m a COO, and a lot of my responsibilities were handed over to the CEO.
VC Fund: Due to CV-19, a portfolio company didn’t reach expected profits, and we had to withdraw from selling it. This meant that my scope of responsibilities wasn’t as justified as expected.
Tourism: We had to lay off many employees. In March of 2020, the number was higher than 200.

Collected Quotes from CEOs and HR Directors
Construction: The number of clients is dramatically decreasing so the company is optimizing the salaries and investments.
Telco: We changed the strategy and merged product lines. Together with restructurization it caused lay offs.

Collected Quotes from CEOs and HR Directors
The vast majority of executives are with market leaders in their respective industries. By default, the board members are members of local boards; if not, we’ll indicate the exception.
Retail: There’s a lot of movement in our segment at the moment. Even though a big part of our consumers switched to online shopping, the stationary sales points are still working properly.
Production: The consumer goods industry has had good results and thanks to that we exceeded our goals for this year. The only problem is that we are unable to hire the people we need – it seems like there’s not many on the market.

Market Research: We were heavily affected by the pandemic – we are in the red and come up short compared to other companies in our industry. Online projects are cheaper than regular ones, so we have to work more in order to reach the same results. Our clients from Telco and Finance industries have been carrying their research without interruption, but those from FMCG slowed down a bit and have only recently started to catch up.
Mechanical Engineering: Our business turned out to be resistant to CV-19 – except for service centers, where 20-30% of contracts with commercial clients were frozen. Unfortunately, all of our recruitment processes have been frozen since March as well.
IT Services: We sell advanced training platforms, so one might think that our business position was perfect for CV-19, and that there was an increased need for homeschooling and remote work solutions. Unfortunately, we were lacking a representative in the CEE region, which prevented us from making great profit. We couldn’t succeed without direct cooperation and establishing long-term relations.
Management Consulting / Sustainability: One of the sustainability projects that we were carrying out was frozen because all the companies withdrew. As their turnovers slowed down, the sustainability budgets were moved to different areas in order to save the businesses. Although a little short-handed, we will start the project again after summer.
Media: The cinema industry has been seriously affected. We couldn’t count on commercial revenues, as companies stopped advertising.

Production: The pandemic hasn’t really influenced our profits, although it has affected our investments – we had to postpone them.
IT: The company made a decision to reorganize – many positions were eliminated. Our projects were modified, which affected both our and our clients’ work. I personally had to lay off 50 people, as there was no point in keeping our office.
Retail: We’ve stopped visiting our clients personally, everything is remote. It’s going to stay like this – I actually work better from home.

Automotive: Around 30-40% of our clients withdrew their contracts since March. We have also been experiencing severe fluctuations in profitability.
Heavy Industry: The structure of our company has been optimized and some management positions were merged, which caused lay-offs.
Mechanical Engineering: The Polish subsidiary has had no intention to lay anyone off. We’ve reduced our costs, frozen the recruitment processes and put the investments on hold. Globally speaking though, around 600 managers were laid off.
Industry: COVID-19 caused a significant development in our IT areas. It didn’t really influence the way we work – I managed to arrange the remote work of my team two years ago.
And candidate side:
Communication Manager / Finance: I am still in the job search mode. In the past few months I’ve had a few meetings and interviews but they weren’t finalized because of COVID-19. Recently, I’ve taken part in a very interesting recruitment process in a Fintech company that has been growing ever since the pandemic started, and needs to improve the communication area in their company.
Transformation Manager / Entertainment: The place I used to work at has been closed since March. My position was eliminated and all the processes I was working on stopped.

Retail: Due to the nature of our business, we cannot work remotely. We’ve introduced strict safety measures. Everybody is required to wear a mask. There are separate entrances and exits, we’re constantly monitoring the situation on the site. We’re required to react immediately if someone doesn’t adhere to the rules.
Banking: The restrictions affected our business massively. A lot of firms stopped operating or simply disappeared. We’ve also observed a big number of lay-offs.
Construction: Our clients aren’t realizing all the orders, deliveries of materials are limited, and the prices have gone up. Even though the official statistics aren’t too optimistic, all the restrictions and limiting are often a strategic decision, and not a direct consequence of the market situation – it is more profitable to do it this way.
Finance: We are doing terribly – this is the first time we’ve been affected this much.

Banking: Our current strategy is to keep our business alive rather than developing it.
Energy: We are suspecting some lay-offs.
Telecom / Manufacturing: Fortunately, we haven’t experienced any significant downtime, so we haven’t really suffered because of COVID-19.
Public Relations & Communications: A big broadcast media chain has decided to centralize the management and get rid of local GMs. Only operational decisions will be taken locally.
Computer Software: Our business is growing thanks to COVID-19. We have returned to the office but some of us are thinking about going back to HO in 50%.
Media Production: Many businesses from our capital group had to face severe consequences of the pandemic, especially from the cinema and advertising industry. When it comes to us, we decided quickly to move to remote work. It has partly remained like that to this day – we are currently combining working from the office and from home. Some of the teams have already decided to permanently implement a more flexible work mode.
Cosmetics Producer: Thanks to COVID-19, I learned that I can work from home and still be efficient. What works best in my opinion is a 50/50 solution: maintaining the relationships by working from the office and realizing projects from home.

Media: CV-19 has caused a bigger workload, I’ve been working overtime for a while now. Our team has grown bigger as well. It’s tough to manage a team when you haven’t ever met them in real life – that’s the biggest challenge.
Construction: Our business has been stable, but we do expect negative consequences with a delay in 2021.
Banking: The pandemic has influenced the way we organize our work. We have to rotate working from home and at the office. When someone tests positive, we have to close the entire branch for at least three weeks, which has a big impact on our goals.

The vast majority of executives are with market leaders in their respective industries. By default, the board members are members of local boards; if not, we’ll indicate the exception.
Banking: We’ve seen a decrease in sales and our company has been looking for savings, so the restructuring processes have recently started.
Oil & Gas: Because of a significant drop in the oil price caused by CV-19, we’ve experienced a significant slowdown and our budgets had to be cut.
Telcom: E-commerce has definitely been positively affected by CV-19. Many companies have noticed new possibilities and diversified their sales channels – e-Commerce became a norm rather than just an option. Even though the interest in online shopping dropped immediately after the lock-down, company owners still expect the same results.
Public: The CV-19 situation showed that we were not really prepared to work on-line. Our on-boarding processes were almost frozen and our normal functioning blocked. This pushed us to open new communication channels on social media.
Media & Publishing: The first quarter was very good. The second one terrible. And we'll most probably hit our target for the third quarter – despite the summer break. Due to CV-19 we had to let go 100+ employees – every single team was affected to make sure we deliver on savings. Our conversations with clients re-focused from mid-to-long term projects to short-term wins.

Trendy HR, w tym zagrożenia: high volume i social media
Rekrutacja high-volume odnosi się do praktyki obsadzenia dużej liczby stanowisk w krótkim czasie. Statystyki odnośnie zatrudnienia z LinkedIn (2022) pokazują, że rekrutacja za pośrednictwem mediów społecznościowych zyskuje na znaczeniu z dnia na dzień, ponieważ okazała się skuteczna.
Trendy HR, w tym zagrożenia: analityka HR oraz diversity & inclusion
Według raportu LinkedIn Global Trends 2020, 73% firm uznało, że skupienie się na analityce HR jest ich priorytetem na najbliższe kilka lat, ale jednocześnie 55% specjalistów ds. talentów twierdzi, że nadal potrzebuje pomocy we wdrażaniu podstawowych analiz dotyczących zarządzania ludźmi.
Trendy HR, w tym zagrożenia: rekrutacja wewnętrzna
Stosowanie rekrutacji wewnętrznej to tylko jeden z trendów, które umocniły się wraz z pandemią CV-19.
Trendy HR, w tym zagrożenia: nagrywane rozmowy
Jak mówi HireVue, do września 2019 r. przeprowadził 12 milionów rozmów kwalifikacyjnych – 20% z nich za pośrednictwem sztucznej inteligencji, co oznacza, że po drugiej stronie ekranu wideo nie było rekrutera. Do lutego 2021 r. liczba ta wzrosła do 19 milionów. Raporty mówią nam, że sztuczna inteligencja zastąpi 16% miejsc pracy w sektorze rekrutacyjnym przed 2029 rokiem.
Trendy HR, w tym zagrożenia: ATS (Applicant Tracking System) i testy
Jak wynika z badania opublikowanego przez JobScan, już 98,8% firm z listy Fortune 500 korzystało z ATS w roku 2019. W dodatku, według naszych własnych danych, 60-70% ról kierowniczych jest obsadzanych przy pomocy wstępnej selekcji z użyciem ATS – do 2016 roku byłoby to niespotykane! Coraz większą popularnością cieszy się również wykorzystywanie testów podczas zatrudniania nowych pracowników.

AI is Multi-Generational – kids with tablets to grannies with smart phones are on AI.

AI Add-Ons: Apps, Search, Development – as AI cuts across every domain.
AI Lifecycle: The idea appears. The invention is created. There is select access due to cost and who controls the invention. Then public access starts to take shape.
Media Hype happens. News Reports come out.
AI Adoption: The tech or software is labeled a fad. With time, it becomes a trend due to FOMO.
Utility and use-cases come to those participating. Then the Next
Generation of products come out. Final stage is it becomes mainstream (IE: the toaster in your kitchen).
Innovation Invites Investigation: Review the news headlines on these inventions. The headlines spoke of the risks, the dangers and how civilization would crumble. Things like Leonardo da Vinci’s Flying machines, Distance writing (the telegraph), Speaking telegraph (the phone), Horseless carriage, Electric lamp, Word processing, Spreadsheets, Electronic mail, Wireless Telephone and social media.
Dirk’s Demon to Toaster Cycle The idea that every demonized innovation or technology eventually becomes as ubiquitous as the lowly single-function bread toaster.
Innovation Lifecycle Gartner© Hype-Curve is explained with examples for where I think AI currently fits on the curve.
Beyond AI, there are Universal Options for Transferable Skills. Those include Budgets in general. This to seek out include Budget Management, Excel (Visualization, Report Automation), Accounting Software (Compliance), Profit and Loss (P&L) Responsibilities.

Market Signals Report Week 5
- 1. Market Signals by Career Angels Full Report - Week 5 Winners of the week Iberia Spain Losers of the week Benelux Belgium
- 2. The type of clouds (cirrus, stratus, cumulus, nimbus), their size, location, direction and speed of movement can give an indication as to what the weather has in store over the coming two days: storm, sun, snow, ice or rain. In other words, dreamy, thin, wispy clouds bring something different than fluffy, cotton wool style clouds. 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. Check in on Saturday afternoons for the newest release on LinkedIn: http://LinkedIn.com/company/Career-Angels/ And for daily updates here: http://www.LinkedIn.com/Showcase/Market-Signals/ Prepared by the entire team of www.CareerAngels.eu Published: February 6, 2021
- 3. 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. We 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. Source of signals
- 4. Index18: This week, 6 countries published more job ads on LinkedIn than in Week 13 of 2020: Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Denmark, Ukraine and Belgium. The European Union: In Week 4, the EU noted a -28.59% decrease: 1,349,801 fewer job ads were published than in the initial Week 15 of 2020. Since last week, it's a +1.24% increase. Overview of the indices
- 5. Number of published job ads on LinkedIn Weeks 13 (2020) to Week 5 (2021) Note: some job ads might have been taken off LinkedIn, not because the recruitment process was put on hold or canceled, but because they are costly, especially if you have dozens of them. A company might have wanted to simply cut costs and move to more cost effective alternatives. Some local job portals are offering substantial discounts. These are the initial 18 countries that we tracked.
- 6. Number of published job ads on LinkedIn Week 15 (2020) vs Week 5 (2021) - extended to 36 countries
- 7. Number of published job ads on LinkedIn Week 15 (2020) vs Week 5 (2021) - extended to 36 countries (part 2)
- 8. Collected quotes from CEOs and HR Directors IT: COVID-19 definitely didn’t help, but didn’t influence us directly either. The only thing: it sped up our transformations. Looking at the rest of the group Europe though, there were mass lay-offs. Tourism: It was a rally hard year. There were days when everything was going downhill and we were sure we wouldn’t survive. And although it’s no longer the case, we are in debt and supported by the government in 25%. So our 2020 challenges included: fighting to survive, motivating the team, keeping the clients and ensuring cashflow.
- 9. Visegrad Group Baltics Number of published job ads on LinkedIn by region
- 11. Winners & losers (Wk15 vs. now) Western Europe (-35.56% / -1,340,787) Italy (-42.80% / -72,825) Northern Europe (+45.58% / +44,577) Lithuania (+122.22% / +1,177) Best result / region: Best result / country: Worst result / country: Worst result / region:
- 12. Collected quotes from CEOs and HR Directors Investment fund: 2020 was intense. After a brief storm in the spring, we had to act quickly to adapt to the new reality. Our workload increased, especially during the first wave of the pandemic. We had to work out new strategies and secure our sources of funding. The good side: the digitalization process stepped up and that was very beneficial. Building materials: Because of the fact that we didn’t have detailed data from 2019, it was hard to do a proper estimate of 2020. Fortunately, the restructurization allowed us to avoid lay-offs. We know that there were many in the industry.
- 14. Western Europe
- 15. Winners & losers (Wk4 vs. Wk5 Benelux (-9.01% / -46,813) Belgium (-4.81% / -7,408) Iberia (+21.56% / +48,535) Spain (+38.16% / +47,523) Best result / region: Best result / country: Worst result / country: Worst result / region:
- 16. DACH BENELUX
- 18. The European Union - part 2
- 19. Cover the basics: our ATS "enforces" as complete applications as possible. Having said that, it still surprises me that approximately 30% of the candidates still don't get the absolute basics right! Don't apply to everything. Constant rejection affects your motivation. Keep applying to the job ads where you see a fit and don't give up! Head of Talent Acquisition / International public organization "Before CV-19, sometimes we'd have only 20 applicants for a post. Now, there's a massive increase. For some roles it's double the amount of candidates – for HR roles, even more! A recent posting received 50 applicants within 12 hours! I can see that online interviews are more stressful for candidates because of all the technical challenges. Consequently, their performance is different. The overall candidate experience is also different – not worse, just different." Tips for candidates: Useful observations & tips for candidates from one of our contacts
