As companies tighten remote working rules post-pandemic, recruiters report a surge in applications from disgruntled employees, with two-thirds noticing increased job seekers from firms mandating full office attendance.
The trend indicates a shift in job competitiveness, as 72% of recruiters believe companies that do not offer hybrid working are becoming less attractive to potential candidates.
In one notable case, Starling Bank faced backlash after mandating significant in-office attendance, leading to resignations from staff who preferred the flexibility of remote work.
The findings underline the ongoing conflict between employers pushing for office return and employees seeking flexible working arrangements, reflecting a critical job market dynamic.
