Experts in the recruitment industry have been suggesting that in the current scenario it is best to wait and watch and hold on to your current jobs. On the contrary, job portals have recorded a significant rise in jobseeker activity in the month of November.
myJobsinPune.com has seen over 70% rise in job search and applications to posted job positions. A similar trend is seen on myHderabadJobs.com, the two leading city centric job sites in India.
There are obviously the freshers who continue to look for jobs, but at the same time people looking to switch jobs is growing. Also, given the pressure on costs, companies are preferring to advertise their vacancies on job portals rather than expensive traditional media. The number of new job postings on the two city centric sites is also seen to be growing steadily. The trends seem to suggest that people are still bullish about new opportunities, even as overall industry sentiment remains bearish.
Experts believe that the Indian economy will swing into action once again post financial year ending 2008 – 09. Maybe now is the right time to start searching for jobs, identify opportunities in sectors that suit you and be ready to move when recruitment activity soars in April 2009.
