According to LinkedIn\u2019s latest \u2018Labour Market Update\u2019, a monthly update on hiring trends and insights, though there has been a significant hiring rebound, the pace of these gains is expected to slow down given the continued economic uncertainty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As per the data, in India, hiring declines reached a low of (-) 50 per cent year-on-year in April, before starting to slowly recover. The hiring sentiment stood at (-) 15 per cent year-on-year as of the end of June.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs risks of second-wave of infections emerge, some states have imposed lockdown measures again. Given this uncertainty, the recovery is expected to remain fairly flat in the coming weeks,\u201d it said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Data also suggested that the gap between hires for males and females has narrowed from about 40 percentage points in February to around 30 percentage points in June.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The competition for jobs has also doubled compared to 6 months ago, with the average number of applications per job posted on LinkedIn increasing from around 90 in January 2020, to 180 in June 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Labour Market Update also highlighted the roles that are in demand at present and are expected to remain relevant in the near future. The top five in-demand jobs are Software Engineer, Business Development Manager, Sales Manager, Business Analyst and Content Writer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThese roles have the greatest number of job openings on LinkedIn, have seen steady growth over the past four years, pay a liveable wage, and require skills that can be learned online,\u201d it said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The top five in-demand skills are JavaScript, SQL, sales management, team leadership and recruiting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
