Singapore\u2019s telecom\/internet service provider (telecom\/ISP), information technology, and business process outsourcing\/information technology enable services (BPO\/ITES) industries have seen a 39% increase in online hiring in April, according to a report from Monster Employment Index (MEI).\u00a0 The report said the rise in telecom and BPO hiring increased the country\u2019s overall online recruitment activity, which posted 13% year-on-year growth during the month. The MEI noted that while the pace of growth eased marginally by 1% compared to March, the sector saw growing demand in the short term, posting 18% and 27% growth over three and six months, respectively. However, Singapore was overtaken by Malaysia, which posted 43% growth in online recruitment in the industry, which has seen double-digit yearly growth since July 2018. The MEI tracks the industries and occupations that display the highest and lowest growth in local recruitment activity.<\/span><\/p>\n
