Sometimes we forget that we live in a global economy and that everything nowadays is much more transparent and that information is just a click away. Can we, as Portuguese, have an impact in the global market? Yes, but it takes effort from our part. We need to integrate those communities and we need to participate. Today i invite all recruiters to add their inputs to this salary negotiation bowl from Glassdoor ➡️ https://lnkd.in/dGUgSRj9 Real questions from real people looking to improve their negotiation skills in their job interviews. Gonçalo Sequeira 🚀, Pedro Branco, Pedro Amorim you always have amazing advices, so share them with the international community. Let's make Portugal appealing not only because of our sun and food, but also because of the developments we are making in our labour practices. Ok, salaries are not competitive (yet), so let's talk Total Compensation Packages. What are they and how do they work. Benefits for international workers, what are they? We have one of the smallest birth rates in the world, so we need specialized workers to come in. Together we can make a difference, for Portugal!

Here's ECO's article on the fresh Landing.Jobs Global Tech Talent Trends 2024 Report - Portugal edition. Ana Marcela did a great job analysing and summarising its insights on this article piece (strongly suggest reading it). The IT Work market is in a low condition, showing a lack of confidence on both Talent and Company sides. It seems no one wants to give a step out of the last crisis cycle and resume investment in creating new products (or evolving existing) to foster competitive advantages. IT Professionals have lost some of it's bargaining power to companies, and most companies are still mostly in hiring freeze mode (even if they say otherwise.) It's a strange situation, but I'm hopeful this situation is also a correction of some wrongdoings and a preparation for a major jump in this market. My bet be would be that 2024H1 will still be pretty most a 'still' year, but on 2024H2 stuff is going to start heating up, and the market machine will prepare for a new strong growth cycle. This is just my hypothesis, but would love to know your perspectives on this. I leave you some highlights to sharpen your appetite for the report (which you can download here https://lnkd.in/d9Zmb55q) ➡️ IT Salaries didn't grow from 2023 to 2024, signalling a clear market slowdown (average gross annual salary is at 46.5K€) ➡️ The percentage of IT Professionals in Portugal working remotely to a company abroad reduced from 22.6% to 16% ➡️ Hybrid work lost ground to both full-office work and full-remote work ➡️ The Gender Salary grap grew to 36% (males earning more than females), a terrible blow to diversity efforts ➡️ The percentage of IT Professionals in Portugal relocated from other countries grew to 15.7% If you thinks this is relevant content for your communities, please share. And would deeply appreciate your comments and perspectives, as this is a topic of deep importance for both tech talent and companies.

A Sobering Look at the BPO Industry: A Must-Read 📖 It's disheartening to see that mental health is not a priority. The industry must recognize the detrimental effects of toxic work environments on their employees. Such conditions significantly impact motivation, decreasing productivity and cause unnecessary uncertainty among staff. Understanding and addressing these issues could foster a more supportive and effective workplace.  If you feel overwhelmed or unsupported at work, prioritize your mental health and seek professional help. Your well-being is more important than any job. Close Up is an organization dedicated to listening and providing support to anyone struggling with their mental health, whether on a professional or personal level. Reach out to them if you need someone to talk to! 💪

A few months ago I signed up for the Medium Newsletter, so every day I receive an email with suggestions based on my interest and some pieces are even free to read, and super relevant! Luckily, today I read this great article by Pedro Porto Alegre that made me reflect on a really important distinction—there’s a big difference between just having a brand and actually managing it well. As someone who works closely with executive reputation and brand strategy, this idea stuck with me. Something that you learn working with social media is that managing a brand is about more than just being seen—it’s about creating genuine, lasting connections with people. Whether it’s making sure your brand is top of mind or that it stands for the right things when people think of it, this is what separates strong brands from the rest. For anyone focused on building a brand with real impact, or understanding the importance of it, this is worth the read.

WHAT IS THE BEST (AND WORST) JOB SEARCHING WEBSITE IN MALTA? I know the worst job-searching website in Brazil is Gupy and we all hate their forms. But as I wrote recently, I never really needed to seek for jobs in Brazil, because I was always referred by a colleague or something like that. But as I'm actively searching for work here in Malta, I can tell you some things about the websites here. And if someone who works at those sites reads this, thank me for the free UX/UI insights. - I enter the website every day. I want to see the NEW vacancies, that I still didn't apply for. Alfred and KeepMePosted are the best at doing this. But Jobhound is awful: I always click on the same vacancies day after day, because of the layout. It doesn't even have a “most recent” classification, for God's sake. - Keepmeposted does even better: it saves my filters (the positions and the industries I'm looking for), and it shows ONLY the NEW vacancies in these positions and industries. - Alfred doesn't save your filters, but it informs you how long ago the vacancy was listed. So you stop looking when vacancies for 1 day ago start to show. - But Alfred shows the skills the employer wants for the vacancy and lets you fill your level in these skills (on a scale from 1 to 5) just before applying. I love this feature. - JobsInMalta isn't as good as Alfred and KeepMePosted, and it doesn't have as many vacancies, but its easy to use and to apply to vacancies. So I keep accessing it. - And what about LinkedIn? Honestly, I don't see many job offerings in Malta at LinkedIn. But my alerts are set and I still come here every day, because why not? But after all… No job website is as great as the WhatsApps I receive from Jimena, my Colombian roommate, who has contacts with other latinos in Malta who are also job-seeking. Gracias, Jime!
