Interesting stats show that 62% of newly recruited staff, remain registered with job boards with their situation the same.
Research from TipTopJob, finds that 21% remove themselves from online recruitment sites altogether once they have started a new job and 17% remain registered but change their availability.
What does this show us? Are people concerned about having made the right decision about their move so are therefore keeping their options open? Should newly recruited staff remove themselves from job boards to really show their commitment to the new organisation?
Job boards would usually consist of jobseekers who are actively looking rather than passively. It is however up to individuals as to what they decide to do with their registrations and a lot of people like to always have their eyes out for alternative options. It will also depend on the industry and role type/level. If you imagine contractors, they are constantly changing roles and always need to be out there looking for their next opportunity and this is markedly different to Managing Directors who may only be changing roles every 10 to 15 years.
