Post-pandemic jobs: which ones will have greater employability?

Covid-19 has completely changed the workplace and the way we work. However, many people have taken advantage of the situation to enhance new challenges and opportunities. We tell you which are the post-pandemic jobs with the highest employability.

How has the pandemic impacted the professions?
At the beginning of 2020, little could we imagine that the pandemic caused by covid-19, a virus originating from the Chinese city of Wuhan, would completely paralyze the world to push us to stay locked at home. A new situation that forced us to completely reinvent our working day through remote work, a new modality that despite the initial rejection, yields new job opportunities.
"Remote work has undoubtedly been the great discovery of the pandemic," says Nuria Zarza, co-founder of the human resources consultancy HR Services. "Occupationally speaking, the pandemic will change the way of managing teams, with a special focus on the scholarship essay writing service."

The need for coordination between people located in different parts of the planet, the rise of information, or the digitization of companies that have had to go online to meet the effects of the economic crisis is just some of the engines that have converted related jobs with the most promising technology in the post-pandemic world. 

Among the profiles most in demand beyond the profession, more flexible staff will be required with greater capacity to adapt and react to change. In addition, there will be a great interest in people with leadership skills to manage human capital teams and people with high knowledge of new technologies. 
 
7 post-pandemic jobs with more employability

Software engineer
2.45% of all hires made in the second quarter of 2020 (the peak of the pandemic worldwide) were focused on the software engineer profile, according to LinkedIn. The need for experts in digital environments due to confinement or teleworking not only experienced a considerable boom last year, but their hiring will continue to increase in the coming months. 

Nurse
The global pandemic has highlighted the need to inject more economic and human force into the health field as a way to overcome the crisis. Jobs related to the field of health have exploded, and today being a nurse is one of the most requested profiles in the world. 

Cybersecurity expert
The ICT profiles included in the development areas will continue to experience a considerable boom, although cybersecurity technicians have been the great surprise of the technology sector since the beginning of the pandemic. The need to safeguard the digital environment of thousands of companies migrating to the cloud predicts up to 300,000 vacancies in cybersecurity positions over the next 5 years. 

Big data analyst
According to a report by the European Commission, there will be 13 million jobs related to big data by 2025. Within this area, we find profiles such as data scientists (specialists in data sciences, the most demanded job of the future according to experts), data engineers (data processing system development and operation managers), and data analysts (experts in defining strategies based on data analysis). 

Teacher
Until everyone is vaccinated, schools will continue to reduce groups of students due to social distancing, which is why more teachers are required in schools. Added to this demand is the current success of e-learning as a direct consequence of confinement and online learning. 

Expert in digital marketing
According to a survey by the World Economic Forum, the digital marketing expert will be the fourth most demanded position after the data analyst (ICT), artificial intelligence specialist, and big data specialist. The digital transformation of companies requires recruiting new experts capable of reinventing communication and adapting it to the cloud in a private world of social contact, crowds, and physical contact. This position is also especially linked to the demand of the specialist in digital transformation, another of the profiles with the greatest projection of the moment. 

Coach 
According to the same study by the World Economic Forum, surprising skills such as “meditation”, “mindfulness” or “gratitude” are among the main search lists of the year. Concepts are closely related to the figure of the coach, highly demanded by people with problems such as depression, anxiety, or insomnia due to the current situation. A profession that also offers numerous possibilities through e-learning and remote consultations.
