Looking for a job? Here are sectors seeing increasing demand for workers

One sector is healthcare.

In the last three months, there has been an increasing demand for professionals in the healthcare sector and the hospitality and tourism field,  job portal Indeed has found.

Since May, job postings for physicians and surgeons have increased 52.6%, whilst those looking for nurses rose by 11.7%. 

Meanwhile, postings in the hospitality and tourism sector are up by 16.1% over the past three months. 

Other sectors that have seen a rise in hiring are insurance (+13.0%), veterinary (+10.5%) and real estate (+10.4%). 

From the new postings, Indeed observed a decline in remote opportunities.

By the end of August, the percentage of postings indicating or explicitly mentioning phrases such as "work remotely" or "work from home" was at 5.2, a decline from the 11.1% seen in early December.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
