A nice pick-up this week - sights of improvement? _______________________________________________________________________________________ For Information: Dan Moran, 518-641-8968 May 16, 2012 Job Postings Take Turn for the Better with an Increase (Albany, NY, May 16, 2012) – Post postings took a turn for the better, increasing over 200 this past seven days for the period prior, certainly good news. “Job postings came in at 1996 for the last seven days, up from 1763 the week prior, a nice increase and perhaps a sign of some renewed confidence in the market” , stated Moran, of Next-Act (www.next-act.com), a career transition management firm located in Colonie. “ This is also good timing for recent college grads returning to the area in search of jobs. They will see a bit stronger job market which will be helpful”. Other markets in NYS saw declines in the number of job postings, especially the metro NYC market which has had a very difficult past few months with postings being way down from last year’s levels.
