The controverted situations take place in the job market. On the one hand, there are job seekers actively searching and sending out hundreds of job applications without success; on the other, there are employers struggling to fill their positions with qualified candidates.

Many don’t understand why they are not given the chances, even though the roles match their education and experience well. They feel lack of responses from employers, seldom get a chance for interview. Especially the job seekers with immigrant backgrounds feel more confused and frustrated with the situation. People want to see what happens behind the scenes and how to get closer to success.

This seminar will be addressed on problems described above. All attendees will be given experiences and analysis about trend development of job market after COVID-19 pandemic, no matter you are looking at a job or a new position.

The project entitled 'A new model to find a job' and funded by Oslo Commune, aims to develop a new way for job seekers in the job market via a link or active interactions with professional helps including employees in advance to increase the possibility and opportunity of getting a job as they are seeking for.
