As we head well into 2022, here are our top three recruitment predictions for the year ahead.

☑️ Andrew Murrkitt, Senior Recruitment Consultant

WIDER TALENT POOL
“Due to increased WFH and hybrid roles, there will be an increase in high-caliber Finance professionals relocating to the South Coast. Plus, interviewing new candidates virtually will continue to allow recruiters to access an extensive and diverse talent pool with a broader skillset.”

​

☑️ Chris Judd, Associate Director

OUTSOURCING
“In a candidate short market, the need for temporary and contract resource is likely to grow. Plus, with challenges still remaining around IR35, it will likely push rates up!”

A BIGGER FOCUS ON EMPLOYER BRANDING
“Businesses with a strong employer brand attract up to 50% more qualified candidates.
Candidates tend to consider a company’s employer brand before applying for a job, so employers need to consider the needs of their ideal employees and adjust their branding approach accordingly.”​
