Very interesting numbers. I am especially pleased that competition has decreased and more vacancies have appeared for candidates without experience. 🙌 Apparently, companies have begun to invest more in training young specialists.
Sofía
Yes, really good news for those starting out in careers. Although 8.5% of vacancies without experience still seems like a small proportion. 🤔 But the trend as a whole is pleasing.
Hans
I was impressed by the numbers for vacancies requiring English intermediate+. Almost 60% is a very high demand for language skills. 💻 Apparently, many companies are targeting international markets.
Emma
I found the ratio of new and reactivated candidates interesting. Apparently, many have decided to return to the labor market after a break. 🔄 Perhaps this is due to the improving economic situation?
Giuseppe
Hmm, a record 7.5 thousand vacancies - this is certainly impressive. But I am alarmed by the fact that the number of new candidates fell by 17%. 😕 Are IT specialists really losing interest in this area?
Aleksander
Undoubtedly, these figures demonstrate the revival of the labor market. 📈 But I was upset that the share of vacancies for experienced specialists (5+ years) is still high - 41% for developers. It will not be easy for young talents.
Władysław
Ba! These fashion trends and numbers don't impress me. 🙄 In our time, everything was much simpler and more honest. Nowadays there is too much hype around every little thing.
