The business process outsourcing sector in the Philippines posted weaker growth in December, compared to general job growth in the country, said Monster.com, in a statement released on 29 January. Monster reported that online hiring growth in the Philippines experienced a robust growth rate of 17% year-on-year between December 2017 and 2018, although this was a lower than November’s figure of 23%. In comparison, the data showed that the BPO/ITES sector saw a growth rate of only 10% in vacancies during the month.
