According to two indexes released this week, Canadian employers are steadily increasing recruitment. The Monster Employment Index showed that online recruitment in the second-quarter of this year was at its highest level since 2008. The Association of Canadian Search, Employment and Staffing Services (ACSESS) also showed that increased employment opportunities has brought the Canadian employment industry to near pre-recession levels.

It also showed that there was a 91 percent increase in online recruitment in the manufacturing, processing, and utilities sector. Equipment operators, trades, transportation, and warehousing sector experienced a 31 percent growth, while management occupations experienced a 62 percent growth.

Brian Toffey, President of ACSESS, noted that temporary employment assignments are lengthening in time and employers are hiring more permanent employees through staffing companies.

The Canadian economy has already created nearly 200,000 jobs since January 2011 and employment opportunities are expected to continue this year.
