Our latest survey reveals that job boards are the favoured option for jobseekers when they are first looking to find a new job. 38% choose a "job board" in the first instance to search for their next role before anything else.
"Social networks" were the second most favoured avenue for a jobseeker with 18% visiting either Linkedin, Facebook, Instagram or one of the other platforms.
"Recruitment agencies" were not as popular as we thought with 16% choosing them first and "search engines", an even less popular source (15%).
Only 10% of jobseekers go direct to the end clients and 3% use their own friend or acquaintance network, which was another surprising result as normally, the networks are a valuable and popular source to find a new job. Maybe it is not the first place people go though!
