Across Asia Pacific and the Middle East, the **Net Employment Outlook remains steady at +28%**—showing stability from last quarter and gaining 7 points compared to this time last year. This is a strong signal of confidence in our markets. **Information Technology is leading the way with a +38% Outlook**, followed by **Financials & Real Estate (+31%)** and **Industrials & Materials (+29%)**. These number show growing demand and opportunities in these industries. It’s also notable that **63% of companies in APME are increasing their investments in automation**—a clear indication of an overall trend for efficiency and innovation. **In the Philippines, we’re seeing encouraging alignment with regional trends.** Our local market continues to demonstrate strength in sectors such as IT and Business Services, where demand remains robust. As organizations pursue automation efforts and digital transformation, we’re in a great position to provide skilled talent and meaningful support both locally and throughout the world. We look forward to maximizing this momentum to help shape a future-ready workforce."   [Download Full Report](https://manpower.com.ph/hubfs/MPG-MEOS-Q3-2025-APME_PH.pdf) ![APME-MEOS-Q3-2025-Carousel-Industry-Outlooks_1](https://22358555.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na2.net/hub/22358555/hubfs/APME-MEOS-Q3-2025-Carousel-Industry-Outlooks_1.jpg?width=1200&length=1200&name=APME-MEOS-Q3-2025-Carousel-Industry-Outlooks_1.jpg) ![APME-MEOS-Q3-2025-Carousel-Industry-Outlooks_2](https://22358555.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na2.net/hub/22358555/hubfs/APME-MEOS-Q3-2025-Carousel-Industry-Outlooks_2.jpg?width=1200&length=1200&name=APME-MEOS-Q3-2025-Carousel-Industry-Outlooks_2.jpg) ![APME-MEOS-Q3-2025-Carousel-Industry-Outlooks_3](https://22358555.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na2.net/hub/22358555/hubfs/APME-MEOS-Q3-2025-Carousel-Industry-Outlooks_3.jpg?width=1200&length=1200&name=APME-MEOS-Q3-2025-Carousel-Industry-Outlooks_3.jpg) ![APME-MEOS-Q3-2025-Carousel-Industry-Outlooks_4](https://22358555.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na2.net/hub/22358555/hubfs/APME-MEOS-Q3-2025-Carousel-Industry-Outlooks_4.jpg?width=1200&length=1200&name=APME-MEOS-Q3-2025-Carousel-Industry-Outlooks_4.jpg) --- **A Quick Look at the Data:** **APME Maintains Stable Hiring Outlook Amid Global Uncertainty in Q3 2025**  - The Net Employment Outlook for Q3 2025 in Asia Pacific and the Middle East (APME) is +28%, remaining the same as Q2 2025 and up 7 points from Q3 2024.  - Employers in U.A.E.
