Emergency medical technicians, social workers, and teachers are among the most searched jobs on Google by English-speaking people who are considering working abroad. This is according to a local services study from A4ord, a Berlin-based company providing a multicultural services platform.
Spain sees the highest interest for any role, especially in the emergency medical technician profession (EMT), which emerged as the most sought-after position with 99,343 monthly searches.
One of the causes leading to this job being so popular can be related to 20.4% of Spain's total population in 2024 being aged 65 or over, according to Eurostat's latest figures.
The ageing population causes an increase in age-related emergencies, such as heart attacks and strokes, and drives up the need for EMTs.
Searches for EMT in Spain are higher than in many other European countries combined.
Social worker emerged as the second most searched-for job in Europe for immigrants.
It is the top result in three European Union countries, which include the Netherlands, Ireland, and Lithuania.
In Italy, musician is the most popular job role with over 6,000 monthly searches.
Italy is also the only country where this role topped the list.
Searches in Germany indicate a strong interest in fitness roles, with personal trainer being the most searched role.
Data scientist ranks third in Germany with 4,340 searches, reflecting the country's growing tech sector.
Denmark sees the highest search volume for a receptionist role with 2,833 monthly searches.
Smaller European nations showed more modest search volumes, with Luxembourg's top job being chemist.
