Job Postings Down Slightly – No huge swings however

(Albany, NY, March 21, 2012) – After the past two weeks of increases job postings in the Region (up 8% two weeks ago and up 5% last week) postings, a leading indicator of hiring activity, dropped very slightly to just about 1700 from 1800 the week before, an non-significant change. “After two weeks of compounded increases, the market slowed a bit – very slightly which is not unexpected. The results are consistent with national reports,” stated Dan Moran, Founder & President of Next-Act (www.next-act.com), a career transition management firm located in Colonie.

“The good news – there is consistency and continuity – no huge swings – slow, steady growth and marginal decreases”, continued Moran.
