Share of people in Switzerland searching for jobs online, by age group

The European questionnaire on Information and Communication Technologies Data reveals that there exists a disparity between the internet usage of people of different age groups. This disparity although present in most countries, differs widely in its severity.
In 2019, 36 percent of internet users in Switzerland between 16 and 24 responded that they used the internet to search or apply for jobs, eight percent lower then in 2015. Users among the 35- to 44-year-olds used the internet for this purpose quite frequently. Users aged between 45 and 54 years were less likely to search or apply for jobs online. Least likely were people aged between 55 and 64 years old, with 13 eight percent responding that they used the internet as for this purpose.
