With #InternationalWomensDay this Sunday (8), it is worth a look at the @EU_Eurostat snapshot of EU’s gender employment gap. * Men’s employment rate stood at 80.8% in 2024, women’s employment rate was 70.8%. * The share of female part-time workers in total employment was much higher (27.8%) than that of men (7.7%). * The same trend was registered for temporary contracts (11.3% vs 8.9%) and situations of underemployment (3.6% vs 1.6%), where the share of women was higher than that of men. * Between 2014 and 2024, the EU’s gender employment gap fell by 1.1 percentage points. ec.europa.eu/eurostat/web/p…

Spring Statement: “stability.” Reality? Youth / unemployment up. Hiring slowing. Energy shocks rising. You cannot grow an economy if employers are too nervous to hire. @RecruiterMag @DeeDeeDoke @RachelReevesMP #SpringStatement #UKeconomy #Recruitment shorturl.at/67I3T

Youth unemployment rising. Concern over Graduate fees and debt levels. Is the education system delivering? This is well worth a read. Great coverage by @RecruiterMag 👇 recruiter.co.uk/news/2026/02/j… #AI #Skills #EarlyCareers #FutureOfWork #Recruiter #YouthUnemployment

In an open letter to education secretary @bphillipsonMP, global talent acquisition and branding leader @MatthewJeffery warns that the UK is not preparing young people for either an AI-shaped economy or a ‘skills first’ labour market. Do you agree? recruiter.co.uk/news/2026/02/j…

You can’t build an AI economy while closing the door on early careers. The UK is getting skills policy wrong and the consequences will last years. Great coverage by @RecruiterMag 👇 recruiter.co.uk/news/2026/02/j… #AI #Skills #EarlyCareers #FutureOfWork #Recruiter

As @RECNeil says in response to today's @ONS data: "There are no surprises in today’s data as unemployment continues to rise and pay falls back to long-term norms. Nothing here should slow the Monetary Policy Committee on its interest rate path." rec.uk.com/our-view/news/…

Recruitment is failing candidates at scale. Ghosting, inconsistency and hidden bias are now systemic. Responsible AI can fix what overloaded manual hiring cannot. @RecruiterMag @leicesterliz recruiter.co.uk/news/2026/02/c…

Headcount growth isn’t a growth strategy. In 2026, the recruiters and founders who win won’t be the loudest or the biggest - they’ll be the ones who invest most deeply in their people. I’ve written more on this here in my latest @RecruiterMag column.

We’re proud to announce BlackTree as our newest Employment Partner & look forward to working with them to find qualified Veterans as their fantastic business continues to go from strength to strength. If you'd like to know more download the JobOppO House app or register online.
