Index Report: Monster Employment Index Surges to New All-time

High in January, Indicating Strong Rebound in U.S. Online Job Demand

January 2006 Index Highlights:

Index soars six points to 151 in January, rebounding strongly from seasonal slowdown in December 2005

Online opportunities for white-collar workers in accounting, IT and legal professions surge, demonstrating broad strength in business services

Demand for protective service and military specific occupations rises sharply, resuming growth following two-month downward trend

All nine U.S. Census Bureau divisions edge upward, with the West South Central region again posting the largest gain due to continued hurricane reconstruction efforts

Summary Overview
The Monster Employment Index soared to a new all-time high in January, as a majority of industries, occupations, and all nine U.S. Census Bureau regions registered higher levels of online job availability during the month. The Index jumped six points, from 145 in December to 151 in January, rebounding strongly from a seasonal slowdown during the final month of last year and mirroring a similar trend seen at the beginning of the previous two years.

Sharply increased demand for white-collar workers in business and financial; IT; legal; and office and administrative support helped drive the Index higher during January. Online job availability in accommodation and food services; transportation and warehousing; and educational services also showed solid growth. In addition, online demand for protective service (security and law enforcement) and military specific (including aerospace and defense) occupations rose to new all-time highs in January after dipping in November and December.
