But recent data shows strong growth in demand for green skills exacerbating an already tight market where demand outstrips supply. The online professional network defines green skills as those that make economic activities more environmentally sustainable, such as carbon accounting, hydrogen engineering and battery manufacturing. It considers green jobs to be ones which include climate action objectives such as removing pollution and preserving natural resources. Likewise, more than 114,000 U.S. clean energy jobs were created in 2022, according to last week’s annual employment report from the U.S. Department of Energy. As of 2023, nearly 11% of U.S. transport workers, such as employees of carmakers, have green skills, according to LinkedIn.

One way companies are changing their approach is by focusing more on skills, rather than qualifications like college degrees or previous work experience. How skills-based hiring worksHiring based on skills can have a wide range of benefits both for workers and employers, Duke said. According to Workday's Pell, skills-based organizations are "far more likely to outperform their traditional counterparts" when it comes to innovation, efficiency, and adaptability. Another major benefit for both workers and employers is that skills-based hiring can be vital for building a more diverse workforce. Companies that focus on skills also often provide development opportunities to their employees, Pell said.
