Global Economic Slowdown Weighs on German Online Job Demand in January 2009
added: 2009-02-11
Having shown relative resilience amid the increasingly challenging economic conditions at the end of 2008, German online recruitment activity fell sharply at the start of 2009, as heavy industries such as production, manufacturing, maintenance and repair suffered sharp declines. Meanwhile, engineering also saw a sharp decline, suggesting their work pipeline is also under pressure. Despite a sharp fall in healthcare positions, the sector remains near historically high levels.
