It's a Song
Today in the Electronic Recruiting News Sumser takes another look at a metaphor for the Industry.
Employment Outlook Survey
A long-awaited decline in new hiring activity among employers throughout the nation appears ahead for the second quarter, according to results of the quarterly survey by Manpower Inc. In the poll of nearly 16,000 companies, 28 percent indicated plans for additional hiring, 8 percent expected staff decreases, 59 percent intend no change, and 5 percent are undecided. All industries and regions shared in the decline, but Durable Goods Manufacturing and Wholesale & Retail Trades were the hardest hit.
New Combinations
