Results
While you 'can't buy what's not on the self', John Sumser takes a look at recruiting budgets, and how to measure results.
Job Options/BTM Job-Listing Index
The index fell by 2.6 percent over the latest week ending October 30. The October online index grew by 30.6 percent compared to the prior month and was up 47.6 percent from the same month of the prior year. (Go to Latest Weekly Release.)
Help-Wanted Advertising Index
The Conference Board reports the index was 78 in September, up one point from August. It was 83 1 year ago. In the past 3 months, help-wanted advertising declined in eight U.S. regions and rose in one. Steepest declines took place in the Mountain (-9.8 percent), New England (-8.4 percent) and East North Central (-4.9 percent) regions. Help-wanted advertising increased in the East South Central (3.9 percent) region.
