Most people would suggest that this statement is ridiculous but interestingly a recent report has published findings that prove just that. The Internet is now the leading source of candidate generation for companies and recruiters alike and it relies on the fact that you highly computer literate and that you have access to the Internet.
Some firms now only allow recruitment through internet applications and you have to fill out long application forms over the web to to be considered for work. There is a chance that this will be seen as discriminatory as the older population do have the access or technology to apply. With an aging population in the UK this could prove to be an interesting concept.
UKtemps have been working on improvements to the website that should help your navigation around the site when we actually go live. A number of people have visited the site over the last month and we wanted to let you know that we are now in the final stages of completion with a Go Live Date in the next month. As soon as we do, we will have up-to-date jobs posted!
In the meantime, any feedback or thoughts are more than welcome so please let us know what you think……

Office friends and social networks are actually in decline. It has been found that 3/4 of UK employees not longer socialise with their colleagues or peers outside of office hours.
The online recruitment firm, Monster, surveyed over 1500 people and found that over 1/3 of the people asked “never” socialised with their work colleagues and only 25% did so on an occasional basis.
Some people have blamed the increase in flexible working hours and increased number part time workers for this downturn, others just believe that the focus on work life balance that is gripping the nation has led to people focusing on other forms of activity outside of office hours, most of which are home based.
