There is already a labor shortage in the health and education sectors, and demand is expected to remain high for the next five years. When the Swedish Public Employment Service lists the university-level occupations with the highest chances of landing a job this year and five years from now, it’s no wonder such occupations are at the top. IT and systems development jobs are also in high demand.

Newly graduated midwives have the best chances of getting a job, followed by civil engineers, preschool teachers, nurses and doctors. Stiffer competition is expected for bank employees, real estate agents, financial analysts, photographers and graphic designers.

“It is important to create a good image of what awaits you after completing your education. An education that leads to a clear profession often makes it easier to get a job, “says Fredrik Mörtberg, a labor market analyst at the Swedish Public Employment Service, in a press release.

The industry that employs the most salaried employees during the period from March to August of this year is the public sector, followed by commerce and sales, IT, construction and civil engineering, and services and services.

Most salaried employees found jobs as salespeople, project managers, or consultants in, for example, IT, technology, chemical, or pharmaceuticals during the period according to TRR.
