On Work.ua, competition for remote work is breaking records: in January, the number of such vacancies almost doubled, and Front-end Developer is no longer the most competitive position
Job seekers' demand for remote work has become even more noticeable: in January, the competition index for remote vacancies increased by almost half. For the first time, the vacancies for which job seekers send the most responses were not IT professions.

Key findings for January 2025 on Work.ua
The number of vacancies increased by 7% (94,985 vacancies). This figure is practically the same as the number of jobs in January 2022, the last month before the full-scale invasion. Then there were 97,349 vacancies on the labor market, Work.ua reports .
In January, the labor market saw perhaps the largest number of candidates since the beginning of 2023, when the period of personnel shortage began. As a result, almost 1.5 million responses to vacancies were recorded in January. This is 39% more than in December.
There has been a 17% increase in job offers where the company gives preference to veterans.
Perhaps the only important indicator that did not change in January 2025 is salary. The median remained at UAH 24,000. The ranking of positions with the highest salaries traditionally includes managers, IT specialists, and specialists for the Defense Forces.
In January, competition for remote work broke all records
Competition for remote work is 5 times higher than the market average. It is one of the most effective tools to overcome the shortage of personnel. But in January, competition for remote work broke all records and increased by 49% compared to December.
And while previously the most competitive positions were layout designer and front-end developer, now the leaders are direct manager and chat specialist . These are professions that involve processing incoming customer requests, usually on social networks.
Instead, we see the lowest competition for vacancies in the categories "Security, Safety", "Working Specialties, Production", "Construction, Architecture", "Transport, Auto Business", "Medicine, Pharmaceuticals".
The largest number of vacancies and the lowest competition for Defense Forces vacancies
The number of vacancies in the Defense Forces has been growing for 14 consecutive months. In January, there were 8,147 (+7% compared to December).
The number of units increased to 782 after a slight drop in December.
The largest number of vacancies from the Defense Forces are posted in the categories "Security, Safety", "Transport, Auto Business", "Telecommunications and Communications", "Medicine, Pharmaceuticals", "Working Specialties, Production".
The number of responses to Defense Forces vacancies decreased by 1%. Combined with the increase in the number of vacancies, this led to a drop in the average number of responses to a vacancy per month. In January, this figure was the lowest in the entire history of the work.ua/zsu/ section.
In January, 43% of applications for Defense Forces vacancies were submitted by women, 57% by men. The share of women has increased.
