Work-from-home (WFH) job postings have leveled off, especially in tech and finance. Indeed recently reported that roles like software development and IT helpdesk dipped only 0.2% and 0.3% since May, while 15 out of 46 sectors remain below pre-pandemic levels. Meanwhile, hybrid and in-person roles are shifting—logistics support jumped +16%, but education fell -13%.
This doesn’t mean workers want less WFH. Instead, many employers are targeting talent open to hybrid setups. The personas of your ideal candidates may be evolving, and if you’re still using 2021 or 2022 hiring profiles, you’re likely seeing higher time-to-fill or other challenges. At PeopleScout, we're tracking these trends closely and helping clients adjust strategies to align with today’s talent market.
Curious how this impacts your industry? Let’s connect! I’m happy to share insights from the latest jobs reports and discuss 1:1 what we’re seeing in the market.
