People in Finland searching and applying for jobs online, by formal education
The European questionnaire on Information and Communication Technologies Data reveals that there exists a disparity between the internet usage of people with a low, medium, and high formal education level. This disparity although present in most countries, differs widely in its severity.
In 2019, 35 percent of users with low formal education in Finland responded that they used the internet to search or apply for jobs. Among people with medium formal education the share is six percent lower, amounting to 29 percent. According to the survey 34 percent of users in Finland with a high degree of formal education searched and applied for jobs online.
