The market is therefore extremely tight at the moment, companies are struggling to find available candidates. explains Jérémy Randoing senior consultant at Fed Construction. “However, because of the crisis in Ukraine and its consequences on the prices of materials and energy, we are beginning to see a certain caution appear among recruiters.
