In what could be a sign of pent-up hiring activities done digitally, the number of registered and active hirers in online platform JobStreet by SEEK hit a record high of 40,000 employers to date.
This is double than the average of 20,000 employers pre-pandemic.
Currently, the platform records a daily average of 80,000 jobs available, the highest number to date since the pandemic. Of these, 40 percent are entry-level jobs available for fresh graduates or jobseekers with no experience.
The peak in JobStreet by SEEK’s hirer base also translated into P1 billion in revenue for the company.
Philip Gioca, JobStreet by SEEK country manager, said these numbers pave the way for more jobs available for Filipino employees.
Giaco said 30 percent of the employers in JobStreet by SEEK are offering flexible working arrangements.
This significant event indicates that more and more hirers are trusting the job portal in seeking quality candidates, offering a variety of jobs for many Filipinos.
JobStreet by SEEK is compliant with the Department of Labor and Employment, and mechanisms are in place to eliminate scammers that are proliferating in current times, so candidates and hirers can guarantee that the jobs on the platform are from real employers and that they can find real talent.
