The page "AtdheuLajm" published yesterday, January 21, on Facebook, an article titled "Good news for Albanians, Switzerland is looking for workers in these sectors."
The caption on the article reads: "Good news from Switzerland...", while after clicking on the provided link, an article with the same title opens, published on November 24, 2023 by the dubious portal "atdheulajm.com".
After verification and research conducted by hibrid.info, it has been confirmed that the claim provided is old and unfounded, and the title of the article is fabricated and does not match its content.

Hibrid.info has previously dealt with similar claims, where it found the article published in real time (January 22, 2022) by several media outlets. (see here and here)
Since the published articles talk about job vacancies in Switzerland, hibrid.info has requested the latest Swiss data regarding this issue.
Based on data published by the company "x28 AG", which collects and provides data on the Swiss labor market, it is indicated that there are currently over 250 thousand job vacancies. (see here and here)
Hibrid.info also found an announcement by the recruitment agency "JobCloud" posted on January 18, 2022 on social media on Twitter, which announced that during 2021 there were 40 percent more job vacancies in all regions in Switzerland. (see here)
Analyze:
After fact-checking conducted by hibrid.info, it has been confirmed that a suspicious portal has published an article with a false claim that Switzerland is seeking workers in several sectors.
After research, articles and data were found that prove that the portal has published old data that exists since 2021 as if it were current, while current data from Swiss companies that deal with market demands for workers show that there are over 250 thousand job vacancies, but without specifying which sectors they are.
Based on its work methodology, hibrid.info assesses this article as "Disinformation".
Reasoning:
A “Disinformation” rating is given to media reporting that contains a “mix” of inaccurate sources or even half-truthful content. This rating will also address reports that have incorrect attributions or headlines that do not reflect the text in terms of information accuracy.
