Since the beginning of this year, Covid 19 has impacted business worldwide. Likewise, since March of this year, Hospitality Recruitment Agencies in Ireland also suffered a blow.
What started out like any other year, turned out to be quite different. At the beginning, business was strong and it was challenging finding suitable hotel management candidates. The well-established hospitality recruitment agencies Ireland depend on permanent hotel jobs.
A lot of people find themselves temporarily laid off. Luckily, a lot of businesses can rely on social support from the government and wage subsidy schemes. This was necessary to support all the people in the industry.
All hospitality recruitment appears to be on hold at the moment. The industry needs to evaluate what team members they will take back and what their business levels will be like once they reopen.
On the other hand, a lot of people who have been laid off have offered employers their services free of charge. This goes a long way as it shows the resilience of people in the industry. Moreover, it demonstrates which employees are keen on helping their employer. These people are the cream rising to the top!.
Many people are using this time to complete online hospitality courses and Zoom has exploded out of nowhere. It became a completely normal thing in everyone’s house and a way to stay in touch. There are many free online courses to avail of and many support groups to assist people who feel vulnerable at this time.
Hospitality recruitment agencies in Ireland are resilient. We ourselves have been through the recession of the 1980s, the crash of 2009, and we will get through this one as well.
