“It’s no surprise to see unemployment numbers continue to fall, as we’ve seen vacancy numbers thriving in the second quarter of 2017. Despite job seekers having more choice, we’re still seeing job application numbers continue to increase at a significant rate. This is great news for recruiters because it means there is a larger pool of talent to choose from and ultimately this creates a sustainable environment for business growth.
Employers should take this opportunity to invest time in their hiring process to ensure they’re able to find the best possible fit for their company. Candidates should see this as an opportunity to refine their job search and take steps to guarantee their applications are standing out.”
