Surveying the amount of time spent in a particular position, a recent poll, carried out by Monster, revealed that 61% of those surveyed are looking to leave their job immediately. Only 5% of those polled felt that they would remain in their current job for life with 19% stating they would be happy to stay in their present employment as long as current economic conditions prevailed.
Commenting on the results, Karen Kilroy, marketing manager, Monster.ie:
The polls clearly indicate that this booming economy is creating a more fluid recruitment marketplace. Employees realise that there is a skills shortage and that more than ever there are job opportunities open to them.
