International job market report, April 2026
Data month April 2026: the most requested skills and the professions in demand in international and Nordic job postings.
The data month is April 2026. The table figures count how many postings published in the data month mention each skill or profession. No change against March 2026 is shown, because one source's posting volume moved too much for a fair comparison. The data is international tech and Nordic job postings, not the Finnish labor market.
