Interesting. When I do some searches on the Dutch version of Indeed.com, I get very different results: Perl (421 hits), PHP (2397 hits), Python (493 hits), Java (3173 hits). The top of the Perl listings seem to be for system administrators, and are not a required skill. Contrasting that to PHP, where the top are all specifically asking for PHP.

I personally haven't spotted Perl in the wild as a serious programming language for a long time. Again, it seems Perl is mostly popular with system administrators without much programming experience. But that might very well be just my little corner of the world, which happens to be a hosting company.
