Share of people searching for jobs online in the EU-27 2019, by gender
The European questionnaire on Information and Communication Technologies Data reveals that there exists a disparity between the internet usage of people of different gender. This disparity although present in most countries, differs widely in its severity.
By 2019, 15 percent of male internet users in the European Union (EU-27) used the internet to search or apply for jobs. Among women this share was slightly lower with 16 percent. Denmark had by far the highest share of men and women using the internet to search and apply for jobs with 37 percent of internet users doing so. Poland on the other hand had a low share of people turning to the internet to as part of their job search.
