Lithuania ended its lockdown on June 16, and now more and more countries are being added to the ‘welcome’ list after the Baltic Bubble agreement between Lithuania, Estonia, and Latvia. This agreement had started back in May. 🧳🌞

Before switching to July’s stats, let’s make a recap of May’s and June’s and see how the Lithuanian job market was doing at that time. 

✅The average offered salaries were higher than the expected salaries in Lithuania.

It turned out that Lithuania-based companies were up for remote offers especially in the month of May and June. The star industry for these was Software Engineering. 🤩

Let’s see what July has brought so far. Ready? 🚀

Job Market Overview: June vs July

The Lithuanian job market saw a small increase in the number of active job seekers by the first week of July, just like in Finland and Estonia.

Normally, there’d be less job applications in summer. But, as we all know, this is no ordinary summer. As the uncertainty still continues, job seekers seem to be looking for new opportunities. 

Let’s delve into market competitiveness.

And now, we have some good news here!

Unlike Finland and Estonia, it has become easier to find a job in Lithuania lately. The slight increase has put the ease of finding a job at the sweet spot of “OK level”. 

For software engineers and IT & Sysadmin experts, the situation is even better. 👍

Want to know more? No worries, we’ll share a more detailed analysis of the ease of finding a job in the top 6 industries later in this report. Almost there! 👀

Salaries in Top 6 Specialties

If money could talk, what would it say about the average gross salaries in the Lithuanian job market lately?

average gross salary in Lithuania, May vs June

👉 Unlike in Finland and Estonia, the average gross salaries increased in all industries in Lithuania. When it comes to recovery, Lithuania is apparently doing well. 👏

👉 Software Engineering saw a slight decrease in the average gross salaries in June.

👉 Even though the salaries in Lithuania have been a bit lower than in Estonia and Finland, the increase rates are still higher compared to those in these two countries.

So, what are job seekers expecting from companies? And more importantly, have the expectations and offerings matched so far? 🥁

Average expected salary in Lithuania, May vs June

👉 The average expected salaries were significantly lower in Lithuania in most industries compared to those in Estonia and Finland.

👉 Sales and Business Development and (Tech) Project Management saw a decrease in the expected salaries. 

👉 Apparently, marketing & PR & media professionals are the ones who have made the biggest revisions to their expectations with an increase of 265EUR in June.

Despite the increase in the average expected salaries, the offered salaries are still lower in all industries except for Sales and Business Development and Marketing & PR & Media for now.

Competition in Top 6 Specialties

Now, let’s have a look at the market competitiveness in the top 6 specialties in June in comparison with May. 🔎

Market competition in Lithuania, May vs July

It’s become more challenging to find a job in all industries in Lithuania except for IT & Sysadmin, which was already at the comfortable “almost very easy level”. 

Sales & Business Development saw very little change while the Finance industry faced a sharp downturn. 📉

Despite the positive vibe in the air for Finance professionals looking for a job in Lithuania in the past, now it’s become drastically challenging. 😵

Software engineers may also find it a bit harder to find their dream roles nowadays. But who knows, maybe the end of July will bring much better news for all industries. 🙏

If you’d ask a friend, “What is the best city for finding a job in Europe today,” you probably wouldn’t expect to hear Vilnius as a response.

Well, we ran the numbers and despite some graphs being in the red, the Lithuanian job market remains a strong contender for that ranking. 🏅

This week, we see some turbulence in some of the key indicators of the job market in Lithuania. The streak of increasing numbers of job openings has come to an end, but the total number of openings is still higher than that of Finland or Estonia, for example. So we’d say there’s no big cause for concern for the Lithuanian job market.

Job Market Overview

Recent weeks have shown a seemingly ever-increasing number of job openings in Lithuania. You know what they say, “What comes up, must come down.”

This week, we see a stark decrease in the number of job openings. In fact, the number of active job openings has decreased by 19.9% as compared to a week ago. 😱 

The numbers of active job seekers have remained stable, though. We see that 9.7% of the talent are active job seekers at this time.

Across the specialties, finding a job in Lithuania remains relatively easy on average. At the same time, the ease of hiring is a little below average, leaning towards “Challenging”.

Hiring in Lithuania may 2020

However, not all competition is created equal. Job-seekers in Software Development, Data & Analytics as well as IT & Sysadmin should find it easy to get hired, while those in Marketing & PR, Design and Customer support will likely find it quite challenging. 🙇‍♂️

Perhaps unsurprisingly then, software development skills remain the most in-demand skills in the Lithuanian job market.

We do hope that aligned expectations lead to more happy hires. Here are a few of the more recent vacancies in finance, if you are looking to become a happy hire:
