These 3 sectors will be on a hiring spree in Q4

Spurred by holiday demands.

According to PrimeStaff Management Services' employment outlook for Q4, the US Federal Reserve’s recent decision to refrain from tapering its Quantitative Easing (QE) programme was welcomed by the markets as it signals a continued low interest rate environment, effectively delaying costlier of funds. This is positive for businesses and the general economy so we expect good economic progress to continue in Singapore in Q4, barring any major political conflict or natural disaster.

The report noted that there will be a surge in manpower needs for the Hospitality, Retail and Food & Beverage industries in Q4, due to seasonal hiring for the coming Christmas and Chinese New Year festive periods in December and January, respectively.

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.
