📊 In a recent survey 52% of professionals think that…
September is the best month to apply for a new job and there are a few reasons why we agree with the professionals 👇
For one, most people are back in the office after annual leave and as holidays are finishing business naturally starts to pick up and all those conversations that got put off until "after summer" finally happen.
There's also a bit of a reset that happens, many of the roles that were on hold or even closed off in the summer, now after some thought may be back open and moving again.
And then there's the personal side. A break tends to make people think about what they want next, that could be a new challenge or just a change of scene and September is usually when they start doing something about it.
Put all of that together and you get a stretch where hiring and job hunting both pick up at the same time. If you're on either side of that right now, it's worth acting on.
We see this year on year, if you are either a candidate wanting a new role or a client just getting back into the swing of things and wanting assistance on a vacancy, let our award winning team help, we have almost 40 years of experience in the recruitment industry and we know how to make September count for you.
