Publication Data on online job advertisements in ESSnet WIN

Date May 21, 2025

The demand for readily available data on short-term developments in the labour market is growing. The Federal Statistical Office has been analysing the potential of online job advertisements in this regard for several years. Various feasibility studies on the use of these new digital data have been conducted, particularly as part of the ESSnet Big Data projects. The goal of a new project currently underway is to develop a Web Intelligence Network (WIN), which seeks to standardise the collection, management and transfer of knowledge on the use and integration of web data in national statistics production systems. Known as “ESSnet WIN” for short, the project focuses, inter alia, on online job advertisements.
