Looking ahead, Murphy believes that the professional recruitment market will bounce back for the rest of the year and into 2016. “Things were already picking up at the end of September and the growth trend consolidated at the start of October.

That said, there is still a surfeit of oil on the market and much depends on where the price of oil goes next,” Murphy concluded.
