Prior to 2021, recruiting firm Randstad s annual list of the upcoming year s most in-demand jobs would typically feature roles such as truck drivers, heavy duty mechanics and welders.
However, the COVID-19 pandemic’s sweeping effect on the economy has upended those trends, and roles such as customer service representatives, essential retail workers, security analysts and architects are expected to be some of the most sought after positions in 2021, according to industry experts.
Carolyn Levy, president of Randstad Technologies, said the boom in e-commerce has created demand for a variety of jobs to ensure goods can get from business to consumer, such as warehouse workers, delivery drivers and procurement specialists.
Meanwhile, the rush for corporations to digitize their workspaces has bolstered an already strong demand for IT workers in the country. In Canada in general the IT sector was a hot area, and now it’s going to be even more prevalent, said Levy, who said the field may shift away from previous practices of hiring for short-term contracts. There are going to be more permanent opportunities just to support the way of living and our new reality as we work more remotely in general.
