Amidst European elections, certain representatives from both the European and French tech sectors argue that Europe should lessen its reliance on American and Asian firms. However, this assertion raises concerns. Europe prides itself on being an open economy where individuals and companies, regardless of nationality, can flourish. This openness benefits Europeans, as foreign firms contribute to job creation, foster competition, and drive innovation domestically. Before heeding such assertions, politicians should carefully consider why Europeans would stand to gain greater benefits from pursuing independence.

Thinking of working in #Germany/ #EU as an Indian IT professional, finance whiz? Well, you might just have a reason to cheer for #PresidentTrump’s comeback. Wait, #Trump and Germany? What’s the connection? Good question. Here’s the deal: When the EU economy is thriving, European companies (especially in Germany) often look beyond their borders to fill talent gaps, and Indian professionals are high on their list. But right now, things aren’t looking so rosy across the continent. The #RussiaUkraineWar has been hitting the #EUEconomy hard. How do I know? Well, my first offer from a Berlin-based company in 2022 was withdrawn because of "the war's impact on their business." When I eventually did make it to Germany with another job, I saw it firsthand: layoffs, hiring freezes, and a demand for IT workers that barely kept up with available EU talent, which meant they won't hire non-EU. So, here’s where Trump comes in. On the campaign trail, he’s been promising to “end the war.” Now, if he actually pulls it off (whether in a week, a month, or a little longer), the EU economy could bounce back—and with it, the demand for skilled talent from outside the EU. And that’s why I’ll be covering topics like finding a job, navigating the lifestyle, and whether you’d actually enjoy working in Europe. Got questions about working in Germany? Want to know what it’s really like?

This week, in celebration of Polish business, I’m taking a wider perspective on the country’s economic landscape, inspired by Poland’s Independence Day. Data recently highlighted by Notes from Poland (link in comments) shows some impressive stats: Poland currently has the lowest labor market slack in Europe, indicating that most of the workforce is employed in roles better suited to their skill levels. For a dynamic, growing economy like Poland, this is great news. Notably, unemployment also hit a low in July, in fact, the lowest in over 30 years. On top of that, the average wage grew by 14.7% year-over-year in Q2 2024, marking the largest increase in the last 20 years. These milestones reflect Poland’s continued economic resilience and growth. Of course, it’s worth recognizing that this macro success doesn’t always resonate equally everywhere, particularly here in rural regions where opportunities can vary. For business leaders and recruiters, this tight labor market presents both an opportunity and a challenge. While rising wages and high employment rates are positive indicators, they also mean there's a competitive and tight landscape for recruitment. As Poland continues to grow, navigating large-scale recruitment initiatives will require even more strategic planning. Good news all around though, and here’s to continued progress!

London's blue-chip index sank at the open on Monday as markets reacted cautiously to a French snap election being called on Sunday. Other global markets also traded lower following Emmanuel Macron’s announcement to hold an election on June 30. In Britain, fresh unemployment data highlighted concerns about a weaker UK labour market after it was revealed the number of people looking for a job had risen to its highest rate in three and a half years. A mix of increased job cuts and less hiring meant a rise in unemployment in May, marking the 15th consecutive month of rises and taking the figure to the highest since December 2020. In company news, industrial equipment provider Ashtead revealed it is considering joining the London exodus by switching its listing to the US. A company review is in its preliminary stages to see whether it is viable to make the same switch as done by betting group Flutter, building materials...
