Sohn elaborated on the increase of backfill roles, which surpassed new roles for the first time this month (53%), according to [Recruiter.com’s October Recruiter Index](https://blog.recruiter.com/recruiter.com-announces-results-of-recruiter-index-for-october-2021).  “More roles we’re being backfilled than were actually new jobs. That’s gonna create this headwind that’s being created by the Great Resignation,” Sohn stated.
