Well, as we exit recession and enter a bright new dawn of prosperity, I am pleased to report that the number of vacancies across a sample of job boards for Regional Private Practices rose from 1034 last week to a figure of 1075 this week (+1% on last year).

Whilst unemployment may be falling, I am disappointed to report that the number of vacancies across Regional firms also fell this week from 1103 last week to 1034 this week. This week’s figure is 3% up on the corresponding figure last year.

It’s been a decnt week in terms of uplift in the number of vacnacies – this week’s figure is up to 1103 from last week’s 1024. This week’s figure is 13% up on the lfl figure last year – that’s the highest lfl lift since we began recording figures.

Happy New Year! The index has started with a figure of 1024 – up slightly from the last figure before Christmas and up 10% on the corresponding week last year.

Last week saw one of the monitored websites change its search engine which has seen figures from said website drop slightly as I can no longer Search on exactly the same perameters as before. However, we shall carry on regardless! So, after a drop to 1010 last week, the index has rallied significantly to to 1160 this week. A figure which is 4% higher than the lfl figure last year.

A disappointing week with the volume of vacancies dropping from 1210 last week to 1156 this week, although this week’s figure is 2% on the LFL figure for 2008.

It has been another week of encouraging growth, with volumes rising from 1136 last week to reach 1192 this week (+7% on last year), a figure which represnts a 4 month high.

The number of vacancies is down slightly this week to 1136 from last week’s 1183. This week’s figure is 5% up on the LFL figure for 2008.

This week’s figure sees another healthy rise 1130 to 1183, which is 5% up on the corresponding figure for last year. the level of vacancies has risen by 9% over the last 2 weeks.
