Recently, Jobstreet release a report about the job outlook here in the Philippines. The announcement happened at the Sentro 1771 in Capitol Commons
I for one is a regular subscriber of Jobstreet when it comes to job hunting. Jobstreet help a lot of job seekers like me. I usually receive a dozen job offers in my email since I enrolled in their website which made my job seeking a lot easier and hassle free
And now for the good news.
This positive sentiment among employers and candidates is backed by indications of increased hiring and job-hunting activity, as 95% of Philippine companies claim to be expanding, hiring more personnel, and maintaining their hiring rate, while 88% of talents will be either monitoring the job market or applying for jobs in 2018.
Confidence among employers is also seen in the increase in job postings, which experienced a 14% increase year-on year and is driven by growth in the top three hiring industries – call center/IT-enabled services, retail, and manufacturing.
While candidates also managed to display a more positive outlook, they expressed concerns about their job-hunting journey, saying that increased competition in their fields and diversification of skills and jobs are most likely to happen, signifying that searching and applying for excellent job opportunities may be more challenging to them this year.
The study also revealed another cause for candidates to be more active in searching for better opportunities this year – the benefits they most prefer are not necessarily offered to them by their present employers.
Close to 80% of candidates pointed to health and medical insurance for themselves and their dependents, but only 52% claim to enjoy it. On the other hand, 86% listed family care leave as their most desired form of time-off, but only 13% enjoy this type of leave benefit. “While more candidates see themselves to be more participative in the job market this year, companies are also foreseeing robust hiring activity, which means the competition to attract and retain top talent will be more vigorous. What will make or break employers this year is how attentive and primed they are to address the emerging needs of employees,” said JobStreet.com Philippines Country Manager Philip Gioca.
