More jobs in Singapore's banking, healthcare and advertising sectors look set to be available towards the end of the year.
According to recruitment firm Hudson's latest report, companies' hiring expectations for the current quarter are much higher than those a year ago.
Fifty-eight per cent of respondents the study surveyed said there would be headcount growth from now till December.
This is compared to 34 per cent for the same period last year, and 57 per cent in the previous quarter.
The report also said overall hiring expectations remained at the highest level in nearly a decade.
Other industries that may hire more people include media, life sciences and Information and Technology.
Some 550 firms across various business sectors were surveyed for the report.
The report also found that 46 per cent of respondents have met job candidates who were dishonest in their resumes.
Many falsified their previous employment responsibilities and achievements.
In addition, the survey said about one-quarter of respondents saw an average of more than 10 per cent of their staff quitting in the last six months.
