Top 100 UK online recruitment sites report 2006 OUT NOW!

The Top 100 UK online recruitment sites report 2006 is sponsored by amris and published by Online recruitment magazine (Onrec.com).

The 5th edition of this report provides buyers of online recruitment services with an overview of the UK online recruitment market. By collating information on over 100 UK sites, it gives readers an insight into the UK market.

The tables show who are the biggest, but it also provides details of postings and searches so a reader can evaluate if the site is applicable to their recruitment requirements. The sites are also given an opportunity to describe their individual site in their own words.

The report contains Top 10 and Top 20 tables based on extrapolated data from questionnaires sent to over 350 UK sites.

It provides some interesting data about the industry as a whole, as well as specific sites.

In December 2005 collectively the Top 100 UK online recruitment sites had over 11.5 million CVs online up from 9 million in December 2004.

Jobs advertised online in December 2005 totalled 1,229,298, compared with 1,150,000 jobs in December 2004.

David Hurst, publisher of the report comments: ìItís interesting to see how the market is developing. Itís 11 years now that online recruitment has been in existence. The UK market has more generalist sites than any country I can think of, in the US there are just 3 main generalist players. Because we have a rich mix of national newspapers and trade magazines as well as an established and large number of recruitment agencies, it has taken longer for the UK online recruitment market to define itself.

The online recruitment market is split onto generalist and niche sites. Both areas are flourishing.

Itís important to remember the niche sites, who perhaps donít figure in the Top 10 and 20 tables but are doing well. Itís also important to remember that a successful site is one that matches candidate to recruiter in an effective manner.
