Tech job postings hit all-time high: Indeed

October postings were up by 76% from February 2021.

According to a job postings analysis by the global jobs portal, Indeed, hiring activity in Singapore continued to grow throughout October, with demand for tech jobs reaching a new high. 

By 30 October, job postings on Indeed were up 76% from their level on 1 February last year. Postings rose by 4.7% in October alone.

Competition for talent in areas such as production (+153% above their level on 1 February 2020) is exceedingly high. Also doing well is installation & maintenance (+117%), tech (+101%) and transportation (+99%). Hiring for engineering also exceeded the national average. Healthcare roles were highly sought, highlighting the need for more workers in the sector to address the rising number of COVID-19 cases. 

According to APAC Economist Callam Pickering, "Job creation continues to grow strongly across the city-state, highlighting Singapore's economic resilience. It reflects the confidence of businesses in Singapore's economic recovery and their ability to manage the pandemic as the country reopens."

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
