“We are receiving six times more CVs than at the end of last year, especially for entry level and middle management positions,” the Managing Partner of Lugera&Makler Romania recruiting company, Cristina Savuica, said. “Most of those who submit CVs are young graduates, and laid off workers, as well as managers working in companies with a precarious situation,” Savuica added.
On the Grafton company’s website, the number of applications recently rose 50 percent. “Every day we see an increase in the number of applications, which means we have the option of choice, and this is good for the recruitment process, Grafton Country Manager, Florin Ochiana, said. He added that the number of applications for top management positions has also risen.
This trend is reversed from 2008. In the first nine months of last year, local managers were complaining about the labor force shortage, and were fighting for skilled candidates.
