Barcelona City Council, through Barcelona Activa, has launched the new website Barcelona Activa Employment, a pioneering platform designed as a virtual “facility” at the service of citizens. Through an AI-based assistant, the interests and skills of users are interpreted to propose jobs tailored to their profile.

The new portal updates the agency's most consulted employment website, with more than 730,000 users in 2024 alone, and represents 36% of the total traffic in Barcelona Activa's digital ecosystem.

One of the main new features is the catalogue of more than 1,700 occupations, which includes detailed information sheets with the necessary knowledge and skills, as well as updated data on the real demand for each profile in Barcelona. This resource is complemented by training guidance tools based on artificial intelligence, which allow you to better define professional goals, strengthen candidacies and prepare for job interviews more efficiently.

In addition, the platform offers updated information on strategic sectors such as life sciences and health, ICT, industry 4.0 or commerce, and facilitates access to specialised training, support services, itineraries for the development of key skills and recruitment events such as trade fairs or recruitment days.

The homepage is divided into three major blocks depending on the vital or professional moment in which each person finds themselves: “I want to find a job and I don't know where to start”, “I want to enhance my job search” and “I want to get trained”. These sections allow quick and clear access to all the resources and services available, creating a personalised experience that responds to very diverse realities.

With this new tool, Barcelona consolidates its commitment to digital transformation applied to public employment services and promotes a benchmark website in the city's labour field, at a key moment for technological, demographic and economic changes in the labour market.
