Employment figures released by the government show that the upward trend in employment is prevailing

From Joe Slavin, managing director, Monster.co.uk
Employment figures released by the government on Wednesday show that the upward trend in employment is prevailing. Monsterís site figures for May reflect this, with overall job postings up 12% on the previous month. Whatís interesting is that Monsterís íemployment recruitment agencyí and íhuman resourcesí categories have seen growth spurts of 10% and 15% respectively from April to May. We call this írec to recí, and the buoyancy here shows that recruitment agencies are seeing an upturn in business, and companies are turning their efforts towards making their HR teams robust. These are strong signals that the corporates are getting ready to hire again.
