Job
Postings Increase Sharply – Almost 20% in one week!
(Albany,
NY, September 19, 2012) – After waffling the past few weeks, job postings
posted a very strong approximate 20% increase this past seven days indicating a
stronger market in our Region, which is excellent news. Postings were about 1740, up from 1450 last week. “Overall the
market has been much stronger in this quarter and there is nothing to think
that this will stop in the near future, unless there is a significant upheaval
in the economic or political markets”, stated Dan Moran, of Next-Act (www.next-act.com),
a career transition management firm located in Colonie.
Other
markets in NYS posted increases however not as strong. The Capital Region still
outpaces Buffalo, Rochester and Syracuse, all larger markets with more
employers and population.
NEW – How many job
postings are there in the United States today? We will be watching this
nationally going forward.
As
of 9/19/12, there were, on a seven-day-average, 570,172
national job postings, down slightly from the week before indicating a more
sluggish national market than our Region. The top five areas for the most jobs per
capita remain unchanged: San Jose, CA, Washington DC, Boston, MA, Raleigh, NC
and Oklahoma City, OK. There is one job posting per unemployed person in each
of these markets meaning the market is much less competitive.
Other
markets in NYS were generally down slightly from the week before. The Capital
Region still outpaces Buffalo, Rochester and Syracuse, all larger markets with
more employers and population.
