Study finds 60% of Romanian employees plan career change, professional retraining in the next year

Six out of ten respondents in a recent survey carried out by eJobs.ro and online course platform Skillab intend to change careers or undergo professional retraining within the next year, determined by the rapid pace in which the labor market develops, but also by the employers' demands.

Only 23% of them say they have a clear professional development plan, while 33% have drawn up a plan they are not fully implementing. The remaining respondents do not have a plan, as 14% of them believe that it is solely the employer's responsibility, 16% think that it would be difficult to follow, and only 5% are not interested in having a career development plan.
