No one knows exactly what will happen to the labour market following the pandemic including governments and public bodies. The media is reporting lots of negative news, many employees are being furloughed and some businesses will probably close. A recently published report from the Office for Budget Responsibility is predicting gloomy news initally but also states that at some point the economy should ‘bounce back’.

Even before the predicted ‘bounce back’ there will still be jobs in some sectors that are considered more essential and our advice would be to keep looking at all the vacancy sources. In times of previous recession there have often been less applicants for jobs as people, perhaps understandably, assume there are no jobs and don’t look. The range may be more limited but there will be some opportunities.
