Why Tailoring Your CV Matters in Today's Market

With UK vacancies falling for the 19th consecutive month, competition is fierce. A tailored CV could be the difference between a positive callback or polite rejection.

Tips:
🔹 Highlight relevant skills for the role
🔹 Use the job description language
🔹 Focus on achievements, not just responsibilities

Generic CVs get filtered out fast. Tailored CVs get noticed.

Poll: Are You Relying More on Contractors?

With rising NI contributions and tighter budgets, UK firms are increasingly turning to contractors and self-employed staff. Contract roles grew by 20% in 2025, while permanent jobs fell by 9% (The Times).

We'd love to hear your view:

👉 Are you relying more on contractors than permanent staff?

The Four-Day Week Is Picking Up Pace in the UK

Momentum is building, with more companies proving it can work in practice. But what does this mean for recruitment?

📌 Stand out to candidates
A four-day week signals a forward-thinking culture, stronger work-life balance, and a genuine focus on wellbeing, particularly appealing to younger generations.

📌 Boost retention & competitiveness
Trials consistently show reduced turnover and faster hiring. This isn’t just a perk, it’s a strategic advantage in today’s market.

📌 Flexible, not one-size-fits-all
Firms like Civo and Awin are showing how shorter weeks can be adapted through staggered schedules or rotating days off to keep delivery seamless.

👉 Would you embrace a four-day week if it meant the same pay, improved wellbeing, and a culture that stands out?

Why Tailored Ads Trump Job Boards

Generic job boards bring volume. Tailored ads bring quality.

Targeted recruitment ads mean:
✔️ Better candidate matches
✔️ Stronger cultural fit
✔️ Shorter time-to-hire

At Kameo, we craft recruitment campaigns tailored to your role, business, and culture, not just a one-size-fits-all job listing.

Because the right candidate isn't always actively searching, but the right ad will make them stop and look.

Poll Results: Salary Transparency in Job Adverts

Thank you to everyone who voted in our recent poll! We asked: What’s most useful to you in a job adverts?

Here’s what you told us:

✅ 64% prefer an exact salary range
✅ 36% want to see total compensation, including benefits
❌ 0% voted for “band by level” or “competitive”

The message is clear: job seekers value clarity. Vague terms like “competitive” don’t cut it anymore. People want to know what they’ll earn and what’s included in the package.

With 76% of UK companies now planning to share pay ranges with employees and 70% with candidates, salary transparency is no longer just a trend; it’s becoming a standard.

For employers, being upfront about pay isn’t just good practice; it’s a competitive advantage in a tight hiring market.

👉 Do you think salary transparency should be mandatory in all job adverts?

Hiring During Autumn: What to Know

Autumn is often a key hiring season:
🍂 Budgets reset after summer slowdowns
🍂 Employers want teams in place before year-end
🍂 Candidates return from holidays ready to move

But with vacancies falling nationally, speed and clarity are critical. Long hiring processes risk losing top candidates to quicker competitors.

Our advice:
🔹 Streamline interview stages
🔹 Be clear on salary and flexibility upfront
🔹 Work with recruiters who understand the local market
