How the job search — and the jobseeker — has changed
We’ll begin with some of the biggest differences we see when comparing our survey results to 2019 and earlier. For starters, jobseekers plan to change roles at a much higher rate. In fact:
63% of jobseekers hope to get a new job in the next two years
52% of jobseekers had 2-3 jobs in the past five years
Both represent increases from 2019. These percentages are significantly higher among Gen Z, contractors/self-employed professionals, and those at entry levels. This means that many of your members are likely job hunting right now and may be turning to a number of resources for help.
The pandemic put extreme pressure on individuals in all areas of life including work and home. Fear of being laid off, job expansion to account for reduced workforce, in combination with increased cost of living, have pushed many dedicated workers to start job hunting. Providing flexible work arrangements, ensuring employees feel well compensated for their work, and offering a balance between work and personal life are more important than ever. - Dana
