New analysis of vacanices in 8,000 employers reveal that job opportunities in the public sector has fallen by three points or 2% between March and April 2011, according to Reed recruitment agency.
The data reveals the drop in private sector vacancies was due to recruitment slow down in the banking and tourism sectors which saw a huge surge in recruitment in February. However, the 2% drop is still 22% higher than it was during the same period last year.
However, the job growth comes from increases in the engineering, customer services, estate agency, human resources, information technology and telecoms sectors. But there has been no growth in public sector job market.
Martin Warnes, Reed’s UK MD pointed out that April’s loss was expected due to the Easter holidays and the subsequent bank holiday for the Royal wedding.
“Clearly business growth has been sustained at a higher level than the last quarter of 2010, but continued recovery remains difficult to predict,” he added.
