The Recruitment Industry
When considering a career in any industry, you want to know how stable that market actually is. In 2008, the UK recruitment industry documented a record high turnover. Despite a dip during the recession, the recruitment industry remains buoyant, and is forecast to continue to pick up during 2010. It therefore provides an appealing opportunity for those looking to start a career in recruitment.
The sharp increase in the industry turnover was one of the principal findings in the Recruitment and Employment Confederation’s Annual Industry Turnover and Key Volumes Survey 2007/08. The report documented that the overall turnover from both permanent and temporary/contract recruitment rocketed to an all-time high of £27.006 billion, a 1.3% increase on £26.673 billion the previous year
