Quarterly Insights | Q2 2025

Viivi Naumanen • July 28, 2025

Levyl is proud to publish our Q2 Insights Guide for our People & Culture community.

From April to June 2025, the P&C recruitment landscape saw steady but strategic hiring. Employers are becoming more selective, focusing on impact, depth of skill, and long-term fit. For candidates, stronger competition and shifting expectations have made the path to their next role more nuanced than ever.


Looking ahead, Q3 is expected to stay steady but sharpen slightly in competitiveness, particularly across ER/IR, workforce planning, and change leadership.


💡What’s Inside:
• National and state-based job ad trends, including shifts in HR role demand
• Analysis of evolving hiring behaviours, internal mobility, and market sentiment
• Candidate movement and behavioural patterns based on real-time hiring conversations
• Targeted advice for both employers and job seekers to navigate a skills-first, competitive market

Levyl is now helping businesses hire the professionals who keep workplaces running smoothly, leaders supported, and teams operating effectively. Through our work across P&C recruitment, we have built trusted relationships with businesses who value a thoughtful, consultative approach to hiring.

The right Office Support professional can have a meaningful impact on productivity, culture and business performance, and this expansion allows us to support clients in a broader way, while staying true to the approach Levyl is known for - considered, relationship-led and focused on long-term fit. Our Office Support recruitment capability spans permanent, contract and temporary appointments across a range of roles, including Executive Assistants, Personal Assistants, Chiefs of Staff, Office Managers, Office Coordinators, Team Assistants, Administrators, Receptionists, Project Coordinators and Executive Support professionals.
