Boom in temp to perm arrangements
Managing Director Neil Wilson said: "As employers begin the process of recruiting again after a period of recruitment
freezes, many are finding temp to perm arrangements a convenient way of bringing in resources quickly while also taking a long-term view."
Meanwhile, demand continues to grow in banking and financial services as the sector races ahead to resource up but employers are still cautious about making the right decision.
"We continue to see elongated interview processes as employers remain cautious about making the right hiring choice," Wilson said.
"While this was an understandable approach in the downturn, some employers will find themselves at a disadvantage as more nimble competitors snap up immediately available talent.
"The pick up in banking and financial services recruitment is being reflected in the legal profession as more and more law firms are defrosting recruitment budgets and reviewing pay structures. Equally, we're seeing an increase in the number of lawyers considering a move."
