I hate to say it but the reality of this kind of struck me a couple of days ago when I attended the first day of a professional training program anticipating to interact and exchange information with other professionals in my field only to realize while conducting personal introductions that everyone in attendance with the exception of myself and 3 other people had been downsized and who are out of work do to the recession....it's real out here kid!
Indeed.com put together the followign list of America’s hardest cities for finding a job using data collected from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. The numbers were determined by calculating the number of job postings per thousand people in each major U.S. metropolitan area. Did your city make the list?
1. New Orleans – 10 job postings per 1,000 population between October and December 2010.
2./3. Rochester, NY and Buffalo, NY (tie) – 11 job postings per 1,000 population between October and December 2010
