There’s plenty to be cheerful about in regards to the UK job market this summer.
According to a recent survey by the REC (Recruitment and Employment Confederation), employers are starting to regain confidence in the economy. This means they’re much more likely to be recruiting and investing in the next few months.
Furthermore, as the new Labour government gears up to deliver additional employment rights and protections, a major job board has found that nearly 60% of professionals feel empowered to actively search for new roles in the next six months.
