'Soft skills' | Recruiters reveal CV must-haves in fierce jobs market

The last few weeks and months have highlighted growing concerns about the future of the jobs market, as more companies have announced job cuts as a result of the pandemic.

Research from LinkedIn revealed that the UK jobs market is currently three times more competitive due to the coronavirus pandemic and is only likely to increase over the coming months.

The professional networking site’s data said that the UK is bracing for the toughest jobs market in a generation as COVID-19 has forced many employers to cull jobs and slow or stall hiring.

John Lewis and Rolls-Royce are just two examples of organisations that have recently announced job cuts in light of the pandemic.
