SINGAPORE : About 57 percent of Singapore employers are finding it more difficult to fill the jobs available, according to a survey.
The survey, conducted by a company called Manpower Singapore in January this year, involves 650 employers.
It found the top three positions that are most in demand are sales representatives, engineers and management executives.
Manpower Singapore said that with increasing job opportunities in the market, talent shortage will continue to be a growing problem in 2008.
The company also surveyed nearly 43,000 employers across 32 countries and territories.
The aim is to determine which positions employers are having difficulty filling this year, due to lack of available talent.
And globally, the survey found that 31 percent of employers worldwide are finding it more difficult to fill jobs.
Employers having the most difficulty finding the right people to fill jobs are those in Romania (73 percent), Japan (63 percent), Hong Kong (61 percent), Singapore (57 percent) and Australia (52 percent).
