The fastest-growing jobs you should know of
For anyone who’s been in the work landscape long enough, one thing is clear: the most in-demand jobs from today didn’t even exist 15-20 years ago. As for skills, just look at job posts and requirements from a few years ago and compare them with those from today to see how much has changed in such a short time.

But what about the role of L&D, skill development, and internal recruiting? Well, we’re explaining how these are simply becoming strategic imperatives in a world where finding in-demand skills externally is getting harder. Enjoy the reading!👋
