Despite the potential for the 15bn recruitment market to be dented by recession, demand for top-flight recruiters is likely to be stepped up, according to newly launched recruitmentJOBZ.com.
Previous predictions have shown that growth in UK recruitment billings could continue at around 14 percent over the next five years. But while this is now unlikely, career opportunities for recruitment consultants have never been better, according to recruitmentJOBZ.com founder and managing director Marc Jones.
`As recruiters, we are used to telling clients that people are their prime resource, and we urge them to not take any rash decisions about staffing levels that could impact on their ability to compete in a recession. The good thing is that we tend to take our own medicine and recognise that successful consultants are even more important to our recruitment businesses at such times. Good consultants will now be evaluating their career options, and organisations with sound strategies to withstand the downturn will win these top-billers for the longer term.í
recruitmentJOBZ.comís new career portal offers a cost effective method of recruiting recruiters using simple and effective navigation on its website.
