ONS employment stats, Nick Gold Jobsite CEO comment

‘2016 has seen a lot of change, so it wouldn’t be surprising to hear that some businesses are considering a more reserved approach to their recruitment strategy. However, at Jobsite, not only are we continuing to see vacancy numbers remaining stable but we’ve once again seen a rise in job applications. This shows that UK workers are continuing to seek out new and exciting career opportunities despite this time of potential uncertainty. Our advice therefore for businesses is to adopt the same approach with recruitment, if they close their doors they are missing out on a huge pool of potential talent.’
