[Summary]
- Recruitment markets with a higher number of job listings are limited to certain Asian countries given that COVID-19 continues to weigh on the respective nations.

- In Singapore, the number of job listings increased by 6% relative to the previous quarter (July to September) amid a scenario where employers have been more actively recruiting amid the notion that adverse effects of COVID-19 are likely to persist for some time.

- In India, nearly 80% of companies have suspended hiring initiatives due to COVID-19, yet the number of job listings increased by 9% relative to the previous quarter amid a scenario where the number of companies resuming recruitment drives has been gradually increasing since October.
