Job vacancies continuing to fall

The level of job vacancies continued to fall in the first quarter of the year according to the latest 'Jobs Index' from hiring platform IrishJobs.

The quarterly drop was the lowest fall in six successive quarters which IrishJobs said points to a steadier rate of vacancy generation over 2024. A number of sectors recorded increases in levels of vacancies including education, construction, social care and engineering. The ongoing recruitment needs of the childcare sector are also reflected in the increase in education roles.
