WORLD’S 10 'MOST IN-DEMAND' JOBS THAT DO NOT NEED A DEGREE, SAYS LINKEDIN

As the economic crisis is forcing businesses around the world to cut jobs and salary, working professionals are getting worried day by day amid a profound impact on the global jobs market. 

A recent report from the United Nations’ International Labour Organization states that the number of working hours lost in the second quarter of 2020 is expected to be 400 million full-time jobs, which means seeking out positions that are in-demand from employers.

As per data compiled by LinkedIn, the jobs market is currently three times more competitive when compared to last year. 

Josh Graff, U.K. country manager at LinkedIn, told CNBC’s "Britain is facing the toughest labor market in a generation as a result of the economic fallout from Covid-19. I think the beauty of these jobs is that you don’t necessarily need formal education, you can develop the skills that you need online. He later agreed that college still had a “really important role to play.” 

In a recent report compiled by LinkedIn, they have identified the most in-demand jobs in the global economy after analyzing job postings data on its platform. They also stated that these roles have the highest number of openings so far. 

Also, the interesting part about these positions is to be accessible for people without a college degree and that people without a university education were employed in these occupations, the report by LinkedIn stated. 

Below are the top 10 most in-demand jobs globally:

- Software Developer

- Sales Representative

- Project Manager

- IT Administrator

- Customer Service Specialist  

- Digital Marketer

- IT Support/Help Desk

- Data Analyst 

- Financial Analyst

- Graphic Designer

Later during his conversation with CNBC, Graff opened up stating that he had actually dropped out of college. So he understands those who prefer to go directly into work to get professional experience.
