Growth in the number of job adverts across the UK has stabilised in recent weeks, according to the Recruitment & Employment Confederation (REC)’s latest Labour Market Tracker. There were around 1.83 million active job adverts in the UK in the week of 21-27 March. This total has remained relatively stable since early March
However, last week there was a significant drop in the number of new job adverts, with roughly 172,000 new postings in the UK. This was 25% lower than the previous week and the lowest of any week since mid-January.
