The New Use of Technology in the Jobs Market – Help Me

The new use of technology in the jobs market in recent months has seen seismic changes both for recruiters and candidates alike. Technology is now an essential part of both attracting, hiring as well as on-boarding new candidates. The use of remote meeting tools, such as Microsoft 365 Teams, has almost completely taken over the interview process. Since the start of 2020 remote meeting solutions were rarely used, with companies still preferring face to face meetings. Now however, this seismic shift, known as Covid-19, has overturned that. Almost 70% of all interviews now take place via digital means.

More Technology changes

I remember in the past you would be at a big disadvantage if you did not drive or have a car to get to work. These days, most Job specs will require you to work from home for at least some of the week. I wonder how long it will take before you will see requirements like “highspeed internet” and a “quiet office space at home” making it onto the job specs.
