Application 2022: These trends are evident when looking for a job
The classic application documents such as curriculum vitae, certificates and the like are still a must - but the transmission should become less complicated.
In addition, a previously popular document is noticeably disappearing in importance.
We have put together for you the trends waiting for applicants in 2022:
Online application:
The online application is the current standard when looking for a job.
The classic application portfolio is a thing of the past.
The application documents can be sent by email or uploaded to the company's website using an online form.
It's faster and cheaper than sending a folder with the printed out documents by post.
Application without a cover letter:
Many companies already
do without
the cover letter or letter of motivation, as it is also called.
Instead, the résumé is becoming more and more important.
Instead, some companies use short application videos in which the talents introduce themselves within a few seconds.
Online profile on Xing, LinkedIn & Co:
On career networks, applicants can not only search for jobs themselves, but can also be found by recruiters.
There are many interesting job offers waiting for those willing to change.
And HR professionals also like to take a look here to get to know applicants better.
Therefore, when looking for a job in 2022, it is essential to have an up-to-date and well-maintained online profile.
Alternative: create your own application homepage!
Application videos:
“Application videos can increase the application chances enormously.
But only 7 percent of the candidates use them, although 90 percent of the HR managers would look at them, ”writes

on his blog.
In fact, applicants can score points here in terms of motivation and demonstrate their communication skills - a real plus, say the experts on the career blog.
Mobile recruiting: Upload the
application documents simply and easily via smartphone - this is what the mobile recruiting trend is based on.
"Mobile recruiting offers the greatest advantage, especially for applicants, because writing applications is practically 'to go' and is not tied to a specific location," says an expert article by the Xing career network.
Recruitainment:
This approach combines the application process with entertainment.
Applicants will receive a link and follow the instructions.
“What looks like a game due to the design and a small plot, in which the applicant is supposed to solve some tasks and overcome hurdles, is in reality the same as an assessment center,”
karrierebibel.de
explains
the new format.
Problem-solving skills are required here!
Corona and application: Companies will continue to use video calls in job interviews in 2022
In
view of the corona pandemic,
job interviews in
particular
have been digitized in the last two years: video calls via Skype, Zoom or Google Meet and telephone interviews have replaced face-to-face meetings and yet they have shown how easy and well personnel selection works in this way too.
This application trend should remain with us in 2022.
