    Hi there everyone,

    We’re looking for any kind of relevant data / trends / research into:

    - the recruitment industry (for example, are more or less people getting a job through a recruitment agency?)
    - online recruitment (for example, what % of people are looking for a job – and finding a job – online these days compared to previous years?)

    If you have any research / websites / data ( uk / global / sector specific / generic ) that you could point us towards, that would be fantastic.

    Thanks in advance,

    Paul

    Hi Paul,

    All the main job boards (Total Jobs, Monster, Jobserve etc) do this type of research and the big recruitment agencies (Michael Page, Robert Walters, Alexander Mann etc) are worth a try!

    You can try the info on the job boards websites - although this might be on the sales side of things: https://recruiter.totaljobs.com/Recruitment/Contents/FindOutMore.aspx or http://hiring.monster.co.uk/resourcecenter/resource_center.aspx 

    The industry newsletter for online recruitment is http://www.onrec.com/ which should point you in the right direction.

    Hope this helps!

    For information on individual job boards i would recommend looking at http://www.noras.co.uk/

    NORAS uses data from questionnaires completed by 40,601 online job seekers across a large selection of the mojor job boards.
