Unemployment by the numbers
Hiring trends we’ll see in 2021:
Skills-based hiring. More employers are embracing the practice of hiring based on aptitude and skills, not just your previous job titles. Here’s how you can get hired based on your skills.
Diversity and inclusion remain a priority, with an added focus on culture. What does this mean for your 2021 job search? Be yourself! Show off your skills, volunteering experience, passions outside of your job – everything that makes you unique. Here's what you should include in your job seeker profile.
Permanent work from home or hybrid workplaces. Remote work is now an essential, normal part of the working environment. Many companies have committed to a fully remote workforce, while others will allow a mix of work from home and in-office when it’s safe to gather again. Know your preference for remote work and know that asking for it is a perfectly reasonable request. Optimize your work from home setup - for your current role or your job hunt.
