Marketing job applications up in 'quiet month'

Niche marketing jobs website Simplymarketingjobs had a record number of applications to its listed positions during June, despite this being generally regarded as a quiet month for job seeking.

Simplymarketingjobs.co.uk, a site dedicated to marketing positions across the industry, recorded its highest level of applications in June since October 2006.

Ian Partington, managing director for Simply Online Services, said: "We are really pleased with the recent figures for Simplymarketingjobs, especially as they're even higher than those for January, which is traditionally the busiest month for the recruitment industry.

"It helps prove that not only are an increasing number of people going online to find their new job, but they are also choosing to use niche websites for their specialist industry.

"These record figures are largely due to our rankings on Google, which has us as number one for the most popular phrase.

"All of this is great news for our clients, with more applications delivering a wider choice of people to choose from to fill their vacancies.

"It also shows them that if they want to fill a vacancy in a particular industry then it pays to use a niche jobs website".

In April this year Simply Online Services launched their fourth niche jobs website - Simplynewmediajobs.co.uk.

Despite being relatively new, this site already has over one thousand vacancies.
