The REC, the industry body for the Recruitment Industry, provides useful information for [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] candidates and is currently predicting that the Olympics will improve employer confidence and boost employment opportunities. By Ali Withers.
The Recruitment and Employment Confederation is the industry association for the recruitment industry but it also provides information that is useful to job seekers and candidates looking for career progression.
The REC produces a monthly report on the state of employment opportunities on the basis of feedback from employers for both temporary and permanent posts.
Its most recent assessment at the end of June 2012 showed that employer confidence had dipped by a further two points but that the majority of the employers who responded still expected to continue recruiting [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] staff, with 63 percent expecting to recruit permanent employees over the next three months and 60 percent over the next 12 months.
However, the REC's assessment is that the coming Olympics may actually have a positive impact on employers' confidence.
Traditionally Governments of countries that win [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] the opportunity to host the Olympic Games expect this to produce a significant boost to their economies. This comes not [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] only from the short term jobs that are generated by the building of new venues and supporting infrastructure but also from the sponsorship and services suppliers, such as catering, cleaning and hotel occupancy that result during the period when the games are held.
In [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] addition hosting the Games offers a chance to showcase the skills and talents of the industries in the host country and the opportunities [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] that might result in increased trade, [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] not necessarily exclusively in industries associated with sports or the games themselves.
At the moment, there are other factors that are affecting employer confidence, most notably the turmoil that the ongoing global financial crisis has been having on Europe. However, the latest Eurozone summit that produced plans both for protecting banks and also for stimulating growth may have contributed to easing those concerns and this has already been reflected in significant gains recorded [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] on the world's various stock markets.
The message for job seekers and candidates is therefore one of optimism and that they should not give up on the search for a suitable position. Whether in a specific [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] niche such as IT or with qualifications in various support services, such as administration, secretarial and PA work, which are always needed in every sector, there [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] may be more opportunities coming through in the next two quarters of 2012.
To be prepared to take advantage of opportunities that do arise requires ensuring that the CV is up to date, concise and demonstrates a candidate to their [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] best advantage.
It is always advisable to tailor a CV to highlight relevant skills for a particular position being applied for, but a basic general CV containing all the important relevant data provides a good template for this.
Getting feedback on the CV and on interview skills from the consultants at a specialist recruitment agency can also help with preparation and maintain momentum while applying for positions and waiting for interview invitations.
It may also provide information about openings that are not widely advertised since many agencies have clients who trust their services and come directly to the agency when they have a vacancy to fill. An indication of a reliable agency is [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] whether it is a member of the REC, which sets minimum standards for the way its members operate.
