Jobseekers are facing fewer options in 2016, as falling vacancies and rising competition impact upon work prospects, according to the latest UK Job Market Report from Adzuna.co.uk.
Doug Monro, co-founder of Adzuna and Siebel Scholar (Kellogg Business ’02) comments on the trend:
“January’s jobs market has failed to take flight. The normal rhythm of hiring hasn’t happened – vacancy levels are down and job competition is getting tougher. Fewer options for those looking for new jobs is putting pressure on career plans. Hiring habits are changing in a sign of potential instability and employers are retaining their best workers for longer.”
