The weather’s heating up…and according to our Chief Talent Forecaster, so is the candidate market 👀.

We've registered 220 candidates this month alone.

From sales and marketing to finance, ops and customer service - we’re seeing a real influx of brilliant people exploring new opportunities across South Yorkshire.

And here’s the interesting bit, a lot of them aren’t desperately job hunting, they’re just open to something better.

✨ Better culture
✨ Better flexibility
✨ Better leadership
✨ Better communication

That’s what a candidate-led market actually looks like in 2026.

So if you’re hiring right now, a little reminder:

It costs absolutely nothing to interview our candidates alongside your direct applicants.

Need support filling a role? Now’s probably a good time to start the conversation before the hottest candidates get snapped up.

If you work anywhere near recruitment, are hiring or are at all present on LinkedIn, chances are you’ll have heard the phrase: candidate-led-market.

We’re the first to admit, we say it a lot. But behind the buzzword, there’s actually a very real shift happening in the South Yorkshire labour market – and April’s labour market data backs it up perfectly.

📊 43,166 live vacancies
🏥 Huge demand across healthcare, education and retail
✨ Communication named as the top requested skill AGAIN
💷 Salaries holding strong at £31,040 median advertised salary

Here’s the reality:

When there are tens of thousands of vacancies live at once, candidates have options, and when candidates have options, employers have competition. That’s what a candidate-led market really is.

It means businesses can no longer rely on:
❌ Slow hiring processes
❌ Poor communication
❌ “We’ll get back to you next week”
❌ Expecting candidates to wait around indefinitely

Take a look at our full breakdown in our recent article: https://www.glurecruit.co.uk/what-does-a-candidate-led-market-really-mean/

If your business is struggling to attract or secure the right people right now, it may not be a talent problem, it might be a hiring process problem.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We’ve had some absolutely brilliant feedback land recently and we’re feeling pretty proud 💙.

Reviews genuinely mean a lot to us. Whether it’s positive or constructive, all feedback helps shape the way we work with both our clients and candidates and keeps us striving to deliver the best possible service.

And to our fellow recruiters - you’ll know the market isn’t always easy, which makes this kind of feedback even more special.

A huge shoutout to the whole Glu Recruit team for consistently going above and beyond and delivering the kind of service people want to shout about.

If you’re looking for 5-star recruitment support, whether you’re searching for your next role or hiring for your team, take a look at our job board, register with us online, or simply drop us a message - one of our consultants will be in touch 🤝.

📊 Rotherham’s labour market is BUSY.

And luckily for us… our MD Rob Shaw sits on the Rotherham Growth Board, which means we get access to proper up-to-date labour market insight - not just “my mate said recruitment’s gone quiet” data.

Here’s what April looked like:
📍 6,495 live vacancies across Rotherham
🏥 Health & Social Care still leading hiring demand
👩‍🏫 Teaching Assistants topping the most advertised roles
💷 Median salary sitting at £29,504
✨ Communication STILL the most requested skill

One thing the data keeps telling us? Employers want people skills just as much as technical skills right now.

How does one become an Educational Psychologist? Just asking for a friend 👀...

Swipe through for the full breakdown including who’s hiring and what skills are in demand.

Competition for candidates is tough right now. Get in touch if you need support with your hiring.

Our process: The brief → Advice → The search → Interviews → Feedback → 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗻𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽

Some recruiters treat placements like Tinder dates.

Lots of effort upfront. Constant messaging. Big promises.

Then the second the contract’s signed… gone 👻.

At Glu, we’re much more interested in the long-term relationship because the partnership shouldn’t end when someone accepts the offer.

Once your new recruit starts, we stay involved - checking in with both sides, supporting onboarding, helping resolve issues early, and continuing to learn more about your business and team.

Why? Because the better relationship we build with our clients, the better we recruit for them.

We get to properly understand your culture, your people, what success actually looks like, and the personalities that genuinely thrive in your business. Which means future hires become faster, smoother, and far more accurate.

The best recruitment partnerships aren’t one placement and goodbye - they’re built over time.

Swipe right today.

Our process: The brief → Advice → The search → Interviews → 𝗙𝗲𝗲𝗱𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸 → Partnership

Rob Shaw always envisioned himself as a pop star - but Beyoncé level, not one of the members of Five whose name our Marketing Manager claims she’s too young to know...

But stick with us.

The interviews are done. Everyone smiled. Everyone said, “𝘠𝘦𝘢𝘩, 𝘸𝘦’𝘭𝘭 𝘤𝘢𝘵𝘤𝘩 𝘶𝘱 𝘴𝘰𝘰𝘯.”

And now comes the most important part… Keeping things moving.

Because if the process stalls here, candidates won’t sit around waiting patiently; they’ll simply… keep on moving.

At Glu, we don’t let the process grind to a halt after interviews.

Instead, we:

✔️ Gather feedback quickly
✔️ Keep both sides updated
✔️ Arrange second interviews
✔️ Handle offers smoothly
✔️ Let unsuccessful candidates know properly

A slow hiring process kills momentum.

Too cheesy? We don't care.

If you’d like to find out more about our recruitment process and how we can help keep your hiring moving, get in touch with the team today.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄 𝗚𝗮𝗺𝗲𝘀 - starring Robniss Everhire...

Our process: The brief → Advice → The search → 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄𝘀 → Feedback → Partnership

Interviewing shouldn’t feel like The Hunger Games.

🏹 Selected from hundreds of applicants.
🏹 Dragged through a series of exhausting challenges.
🏹 Forced to prove their worth over… and over… and over again.

Yet somehow, this is still normal hiring behaviour.

Most businesses don’t lose candidates because of salary.

They lose them because the process is:

❌ Slow
❌ Messy
❌ Overcomplicated
❌ Poorly organised
❌ Full of unnecessary stages

Good candidates don’t stay on the market for long. If your interview process feels like an endurance event, the best people will simply opt out.

At Glu, the interview stage is about keeping momentum:

✔️ Fast scheduling
✔️ Clear communication
✔️ Proper candidate prep
✔️ Structured interviews
✔️ Quick feedback
✔️ No unnecessary hoops to jump through

But if they're not, get in touch to see how we can help. May the odds be ever in your hire.

Friday Roundup: April edition!

It’s been busy, busy, busy at Glu this month - and if we’re being honest, it’s been one that’s tested us. Recruitment always has its ups and downs, and April brought a bit of both.

But despite that, there have been some incredible wins 💥.

Our team has shown real determination, resilience and grit - and we couldn’t be prouder.

Here’s a little taster of what we’ve been up to this month:

✨ We reflected on our highlights, from resilience to outdoor kitchens: https://www.glurecruit.co.uk/and-now-recruiter-highlight-of-the-month/

✨ We welcomed Joe Carpenter to the team as our Client Partnerships Manager: https://www.glurecruit.co.uk/joe-carpenter-joins-glu-recruit/

✨ We explored the South Yorkshire job market and latest insights: https://www.glurecruit.co.uk/rotherham-job-market-insights/

✨ We had a record-breaking month, with 45 brand new roles to work on: https://www.glurecruit.co.uk/a-record-month-for-new-roles-at-glu/

There’s plenty more where that came from, but we’ll let you have a read for yourself 👆.

We’ll be back next week doing what we do best – but for now, we’re hoping to enjoy a bit of sunshine over the bank holiday weekend, and we hope you all do too! ☀️
