Vocational training is currently much more requested on the labor market than studying. Higher academic degrees in particular are rarely explicitly required. This shows an analysis of more than 27,000 Nejo vacancies. It also came out: the lowest wage sector offers almost no home office.
About two -thirds of the vacancies investigated requires a completed internship, a completed study asked only 16 percent of the advertisements. “In almost a third of the analyzed jobs, no specific training requirements are mentioned – a possible sign of the growing importance of professional experience for formal educational qualifications,” says Aloisious Caraet, studies author and data scientist in the NEJO, who specializes in labor market data.
Advertising companies with flexible working hours
For this, the companies trust further training. More than half of all advertisements investigated from vacancies, followed by employee discounts, flexible working hours and varied tasks. “Future topics such as sustainability, mental health or childcare, on the other hand, only play a supporting role,” says Caraet.
Almost no home office in the lowest wage sector
Almost a quarter of the professionals have the option of home office, although the distribution is very uneven: in the salary class of more than 3,100 euros per month, work from home is possible with almost every second job, in the lowest salary class with less than two percent.
“Another interesting trend: eight percent of the analyzed jobs offer more than the legal minimum holiday of five weeks. The tendency is rising here,” says Nejo Company -Baas Simona Hübl, CEO of Nejo.
Companies advertise regionally differently
It is striking that companies would rely on various stimuli depending on industry and the federal state. In the IT industry, it is primarily an informal work culture and team events and excursions. Postal and courier services mainly wanted to score with a safe job at the candidate: inside. Viennese employers would offer public tickets above average, while lower Austrian companies want to score with family -friendly measures and more vacation.
And how does the much cited “green jobs” go? A fifth of all analyzed areas can be classified as jobs for environmental protection, Vienna and Styria Leiden here.
