New Year Headcount
Last week, I mentioned how usually companies increase their headcount at the beginning of the year (opening up new positions).
Well, from last week: they decreased 😅 Maybe it’s because it’s still early and recruiters are just coming back from holidays. We’ll see in the next few weeks how that change :)
