THE ALLJOBSUK.COM ONLINE RECRUITMENT INDEX
is a unique industry indicator.  In order to more accurately reflect the ebb and flow of the online recruitment advertising sector, we use the published volumes of active job adverts from leading jobsites to generate a composite figure. 

With a baseline of 1,000 from when the Index began in August 2000, we are able to reflect the peaks and troughs of the sector, and compare year on year.  By analysing this more accurate indicator, we are able to be informed more clearly of the seasonal shifts, and relative market confidence of advertisers who use the UK’s major job sites. 


  • Index Launched                          14 Aug 2000
  • Peak Figure            2,205.15       16  May 2007
  • Lowest Figure            728.66       30 Dec 2002
  • Reed currently host 229,124 job adverts.
  •  14,771,415 job weeks in 2008 so far
  • 39,567,410 job weeks in 2007 (+21%)
  • 32,648,239 job weeks in 2006 (+25%)
  • 26,102,886 total job weeks in 2005


With the data gathered from the online recruitment sector over the last 7 years, we are able to monitor the ebb and flow of a very dynamic marketplace.  With the usual seasonal dips at Easter, August, and December, we are able to monitor the volumes of jobs being advertised online.

Something strange has happened in the last month.  Overall, the index is 15% down on the same point last year, and the seasonal dip at Easter seems to have bitten deeper than usual.  This may be because Easter has come much earlier than for a long time.  The Index is well off its August 2007 peak at the 2,357 mark.  Reed, Jobsite and Totaljobs have recorded large falls in March.
