Recruitment of jobs in the green or environmentally friendly sector is still very minor globally. This is consistent with research conducted by LinkedIn.

At least 15,000 job vacancies were searched by LinkedIn on its platform in 2021. From this number, they categorized them into four categories based on the intensity of green-based skills.

These four categories include green, greening, potential greening, and non-green.

Green or environmentally friendly jobs are jobs that cannot be performed without basic knowledge of environmentally friendly techniques. An example of this job is a solar technician.

LinkedIn found that only 1% of the 15,000 job opportunities researched in 2021 were green jobs.

Next, greening is a job that can be done without basic green or environmentally friendly skills, but usually requires at least some environmentally friendly skills. For example, civil engineering.

From LinkedIn's research, greening job recruitment was only 9% in 2021.

Then there are potential green jobs that can be done without green skills, but usually require at least one green skill. For example, a data analyst.

Recruitment for this category reached 40%.

Finally, non-green jobs currently do not require green skills. The proportion for these jobs is the largest, namely 50%.
