We are currently witnessing enormous disruptions, whether political, social, economic, or other: the world is changing.
Indeed, these changes are causing us to lose our bearings, our anchors that gave us stability in the most challenging times.
We have to admit that we question ourselves more and more while the sand makes us lose our footing.
If you are reading this article, this is probably the case for you, and believe us, you are not the only one, and the data shows it!
Indeed, the experts speak of a “Great Resignation.” As the name suggests, we are witnessing a wave of resignation in all areas. In the second half of 2021, more than 25 million Americans will leave their jobs. There is no denying the effects that pandemic burnout is having on workers.
But what are the reasons for this mass resignation?
Statistics show that this high rise is related to salary dissatisfaction, work demands, and employees’ willingness to take control of their health, but especially the questioning we mentioned earlier.
As a result, individuals navigate the job market to find a job that best suits their values and demands.
What does this mean for you? In effect, this represents an unprecedented opportunity to begin your career transition.
As previously demonstrated, the context favors this transition. Indeed, these mass resignations open the door to new opportunities that were not available and open the eyes of employers to the demands of workers, making them more accommodating to their requests.
This is especially true in the areas that interest us most: IT and marketing. It is not wrong to say that these two fields have experienced a boom in recent years, especially with the increased digitization of services and businesses.
There is a growing demand for web developers and digital marketing experts to support employers in their respective projects.
As a result, many Canadian employers have made efforts to focus on the well-being of their employees to offset attrition and attract new talent.
In conclusion, it is essential to remember that the labor market failures occurred at the height of the pandemic.
