Find Just The Job In London

Now with the UK recession apparently showing small signs of recovery, it is good to remember that it is a very competitive market out there. Employers are looking for people who are proactive, persistent, and can go the extra mile right now. There are hospitality jobs a plenty for example. It is definitely tough out there - but enthusiasm goes a long way.

If you have found yourself jobless, the first thing to do is refuse to get down about it. It could be the change that you need - or the opportunity to go travelling for example. It goes without saying that there are more opportunities in London than anywhere else, as Dick Whittington knew. In reality there streets aren't paved with gold, but then, all that glitters isn't.

Females Have The Advantage In Downturn

Female job seekers, including those looking for London jobs , are benefiting from current labour market demands, it has been claimed. According to John Philpott, chief economist at the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development, there was a quarterly increase in part-time employment for women for the three months ending in August. Mr Philpott suggested that this rise is due to a upturn in part-time employment and temporary jobs, which are often given to female workers. He commented: "Women are the main beneficiaries of a labour market where part-time work is rising while full-time jobs continue to be cut." The expert went on to say that the CIPD predicts the rate of male unemployment will exceed ten per cent in 2010.

London Hotel Room Rates Crash By £10

But even that big fall might be undercooking things, as a survey by Hotels.com has London hotel prices crashing by 12 per cent in just the first six months of 2009. However, is is good news for people who want to stay over in London.
