Kirov employers have become more active in hiring applicants over the age of 40

      Kirov employers have significantly increased their activity in attracting applicants over the age of 40 in 2024. According to the online recruiting platform hh.ru The number of job offers for candidates aged 40 to 50 increased by 99%, from 50 to 60 years — by 103%, and for applicants over 60 years — by 139%.

      This trend is related to the general situation in the labor market, where there is a shortage of qualified personnel. Companies are forced to expand the recruitment funnel and consider candidates who previously received less attention.

      "There are no more people in the labor market, and competition for employees is increasing," experts comment hh.ru - Companies have begun to expand the recruitment funnel, inviting those categories of applicants to whom they had previously shown no interest or even were biased. This is especially evident with regard to the age of the candidates."

      Despite the positive changes, the distribution of resumes and invitations remains uneven. The main share of invitations still falls on applicants aged 19 to 30 years (50% of the total number). However, in some areas, such as higher and middle management, finance, accounting, and security, employers are more loyal to candidates of age (41-50 years old). For applicants over the age of 50, the areas of security, agriculture and services remain the most in demand.

      In general, the growing demand for experienced professionals is a positive signal for the Kirov region labor market and indicates the willingness of employers to review their preferences and evaluate candidates based on their qualifications and experience, not just by age. Analysts predict that this trend will continue in the future, as the shortage of personnel increases.
