January 12, 2021 Jobseekers â get ahead of the game and stand out in 2021 January is usually that time of year when many people reflect on where they are in their careers and start thinking about what to do in the New Year.  2020 has been a very different year for many and the impact of Covid-19 has had a profound impact on the employment and labour market around the world. Career plans have been temporarily put-on hold while many are looking at new paths and opportunities. Some people may not feel motivated to look for new opportunities at the moment, but we would encourage the opposite. Even during the festive season, we have had many exciting new roles coming through.
