Recruitment giant Hays has reported continued strong markets at it Annual General Meeting today.

Chairman Bob Lawson told shareholders: “On 11 October, we issued an Interim Management Statement for the quarter ended 30 September 2007. In that statement we commented that our markets continue to be strong, particularly in Continental Europe and Asia Pacific, and, whilst we are mindful of the increased economic uncertainty, the Board is confident in its outlook for the year. I am pleased to confirm that this continues to be the case today.”
