The main challenges for employers in 2018 were finding candidates (38%), getting them to accept benefit packages (23%) and finding specialized skills (21%). Other challenges were candidates not making interviews (9%) and candidates leaving companies soon after being hired.

Overall, 85% of the employers polled said it was difficult or very difficult for them in 2018 to find suitable employees compared with previous years while just 15% said it was easier or the same compared with previous years.
