Job seekers may no longer have the same job market advantage that was defined by the Great Resignation, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t being selective.
Job search site Adzuna analyzed over 5,000 job ads to see just how many clicks they get from job seekers. Unsurprisingly, jobs with low pay, lack of flexibility and little opportunity for career advancement got the least engagement. For example, restaurant hosts made it to the top three, with just 1.12 clicks per job ad and an average salary of $28,000 a year. This wasn’t the only frontline job to make the list — in fact, every job in the top 15 arguably falls under this category, highlighting how many employers are still failing to attract and retain this workforce four years after the start of the pandemic.
