Job Postings continue Flat Past Seven Days – But up overall from last quarter

(Albany, NY,  October 10, 2012) – Job postings continue to be flat the past seven days which one could say is not good but given the performance of the job market this year, this is good. So stated Dan Moran, “We are holding steady at a higher level than the first two quarters of this year and  that is good and better than expected”,  stated Dan Moran, of Next-Act (www.next-act.com), a career transition management firm located in Colonie.

As stated, other markets in NYS were flat as well.  The Capital Region still outpaces Buffalo, Rochester and Syracuse, all larger markets with more employers and population.  

National Job Scene

How many job postings are there in the United States today? We will be watching this nationally going forward.

As of 10/3/12, there were,  on a seven-day-average,   542, 778, national job postings, down from 547,000 the week before, consistent with what we are seeing in the region here – a flat market. 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.
