According to the data far and wide, 85% of people are looking for a new role, with many seeking this because they lack fulfilment, fair compensation or progression. They use several sources to scout, from the Linkedin jobs portal to the LMF Network directory to networks within WhatsApp groups. Despite new figures in the UK suggesting that unemployment is at its lowest, I firmly believe that one reason for this is that the cost of living has increased, so people need to make up for the gap. That doesn't mean they are willing to stay in their current roles; everyone's eyeing their next opportunity.
