What did Q1 mean for the UK job market?

New insights from CV-Library are giving a ‘glass half full, but keep an eye on it’ sort of vibe. 🔍

Vacancies are up 7.6% year-on-year, but March reminded everyone not to get too carried away (like when you get a few days of sun in spring, but then it snows ❄️).

Here’s what’s happening:

📈 Hiring demand is back (and that’s a good sign)

📉 But confidence dipped slightly towards the end of the quarter

💰 Most roles are still sitting in the £20k–£40k bracket

🔍 Salary transparency is improving slowly but surely

📊 Key sectors are still driving growth

This means that businesses are still hiring, but being a lot more particular, and people are open to interviews, but asking more questions.

Buckle up for quarter 2!
