The latest Office for National Statistics labour market data Job vacancies tracking slightly down again but remain at near 1m figure. Employment rate static at 30m Whilst its a 'flat' overall recruitment picture, its still means a very competitive recruitment market for most (and virtually unchanged if you are in a sector with chronic skills shortages such as care, health or logistics) My take is that the UK recruitment market has been consistent in the pattern of 'surge - lull - surge' for a number of years now (and even a lull is a difficult recruitment market given skills shortages....) Definitely time to take stock and think ahead - inevitable that the lull will become surge again Matrix #skillshortages
