【新加坡】新加坡10月份在线招聘增长率同比持平

Singapore's online hiring remains flat in October  

The MEI has shown no annual growth in Singapore for the months of August, September and now October. The index states that this is due to uncertain economic conditions in Singapore.

Among the individual industries, the IT, Telecom/Internet Service Providers and BPO/ITES sector reported 13% annual growth in October, which was the highest across the industries monitored by the index. This is a 4% improvement from 9% year-on- year growth reported in September. Meanwhile, the Banking, Financial Services and Insurance sector saw a decline of 9% compared to last year.

"As Singapore's economy continues to go through a prolonged downturn and broader market sentiments remain dampened, it is unlikely that overall hiring activity will pick up anytime soon. The economy's exposure to some of the hardest-hit sectors, such as oil and gas, coupled with the sequential decline in GDP are also partly responsible for this sluggish hiring," Sanjay Modi, Managing Director of Monster.com, APAC and Middle East, said.

"Despite seeing some positive annual growth in online hiring across multiple sectors and job roles, positions are still left vacant, partly due to the disconnect between candidates' capabilities and their expected remuneration, an increasing common trend in today's workforce," Modhi said. "To remain relevant in this challenging landscape, the workforce must learn to constantly adapt to new demands and be eager to upskill themselves."

Monster就业指数显示，在8月、9月和10月，新加坡在线招聘数量同比都没有出现增长。该指数指出这是由于新加坡的经济状况不明朗所导致的。

在个别行业，如IT、电信/互联网服务提供商以及业务流程外包/信息技术的服务，10月的在线招聘年度增长13%，是增长率最高的行业。较9月同比增长比率9%提升了4个百分点。与此同时，银行业、金融服务业和保险业的在线招聘较去年同期下降了9%。

"新加坡经济继续处于长期的低迷，更广阔的市场行情仍然受到抑制，整体招聘活动很快回升将是不可能的。一些经济上受灾最严重的行业，如石油和天然气，加上GDP连续下降，也部分造成了低迷的雇佣情况，" Monster亚太地区和中东地区董事总经理Sanjay Modi说。

"尽管多个行业和工作岗位的在线招聘有积极的增长，但岗位仍然是空置的，部分原因是由于候选人的能力及其期望薪酬之间存在差距，这是当今职场越来越普遍的趋势，"Modhi说。"要在这个充满挑战的环境中保持竞争力，员工必须学会不断适应新的需求并积极提高自己。
