When the Covid-19 outbreak forced most of the world into lockdown, the recruitment industry was immediately one of the hardest hit.
As business owners around the world try to figure out how bad the damage is and what things will look like on the other side of the crisis, it’s natural to speculate.
But the only way we can really know what’s going on in our industry right now is to look at the data.
So, we decided to do some digging.
We pulled data from our system to get a clear picture of how the recruitment industry has changed since the Covid-19 outbreak.
To do this, we gathered data from before the crisis hit and compared it with current data to see what's changed in areas such as job postings, candidate applications and engagement rates and what this means for the industry moving forward.
