We issued the following press release recently:
Inverness-based jobs board hijobs.co.uk has had a record number of jobs posted on the site over the past month – double the amount for the same period last year.
Hijobs.co.uk, which celebrated its 2nd birthday on 1st August, attracted more than 750 jobs on the site despite the traditional summer slowdown in recruitment.
It is also one of Google’s top ranking sites on the web for jobs in Inverness, Aberdeen and the Highlands.
Angela Paterson, Managing Director says that despite bad news stories from around the UK and beyond, its team is not seeing any slowdown in business in the North of Scotland. She says:
"We are seeing continued growth and expansion in the North. This is particularly evident in engineering, the drinks industry, hospitality and renewable energy sectors. These sectors are showing no sign of slowing – in fact we have seen considerable investment in the businesses and the people within these industries. Our increased business is also a reflection of a move towards the internet as a favoured method of job search."
This month has also seen the launch of Hijobs Courses – a service which lets companies advertise training courses on Hijobs.co.uk for as little as £10 per course.
Angela Paterson says: "This is another significant development for us and it means that hijobs.co.uk is now offering a truly comprehensive service. We aim for it to become a key focal point for people in the North of Scotland who are looking for a new job or wanting to learn a new trade or further develop their skills."
As you can see here, there is never a dull moment for the hijobs.co.uk team as we strive to make our site the best of its kind in the north of Scotland!
