Langley James have completed a survey of candidates that registered with them in January 2009. The results were as follows:
Only 5% have found a new position, leaving the other 95% still seeking that perfect opportunity.
30% of candidates had not yet managed to secure an interview, with the average number of interviews amounting to just 1.
More than a third of candidates asked would be willing to accept up to 10% lower than their expected salary in the current climate, with some candidates even stating that they would take a salary cut of up to 40%.
22% of the responses however, found that candidates simply could not lower their salary expectations due to rising living costs.
They also published salaries on 16 different IT job roles.
