We are glad to see many more people now using their locations as part of their job title of within the body of their job description.

Top 10 Jobs applied for since May 2006

The figures below shows the trend of high unemployment of UK physiotherapists at this point in time. Junior positions are in huge demand and should you have one please use the word junior in your job title as this is a frequently used search keyword. We are seeing more and more UK trained graduates looking farther a field for jobs including the Arab countries, Australia, Canada and more recently the USA. The person who listed the position for the job in Fiji was overwhelmed by the number of interested applicants.

** You will again note the high number of applications and that in many instances the country name and even the city are included in the job title. This makes it easier to search and find these jobs on the board. We do acknowledge that the status of the job in welcoming applications does also factor in which job receives the most applications.

The above table shows the most common keyword search terms used by physiotherapists who are searching from the UK, Australia, the USA and Canada.

**We have not changed the way they spell or type these terms. This should give advertisers more information about the type of things to include in their job descriptions. Note that different graduates from different countries may use different search terms and that using a keyword is the 3rd most popular way to search this board.

Top 10 Courses applied online for to February 2007

** We note that many people apply for courses directly via phone and that these numbers only indicate those applications and enquiries that have been made using the apply online link on this website. Still overtime it should show what is popular and where.

Whilst sports and lumbar spine courses lead the way in online applications it is interesting to note that many more countries are recognised in this list. Perhaps more interesting is that the number one interest is for course prepared in one country that is wanting to take it to India to supply the huge interest from abroad in learning and exchanging information from the rest of the world. Why not try taking your course or program overseas as there is definitely a large interest both from hosting venues and applicants. We are also seeing that as time goes by courses in EPA and in Neurology might well be just as popular to our audience as manual therapy alone!
