Financial Crisis and Employment
Have you wondered how the current financial crisis will affect the job market in the US? I imagine that plenty of people on Wall Street will be losing their jobs soon. But will the jobs melt in other places besides lower Manhatten.
More than 600,000 jobs have been lost so far in 2008. That’s so far, because of course, we still have 3 months to go. The government also reported that 9.4 million Americans are looking for work.
Both job hunters and employment agencies are reporting a much more competitive job market these days. Of course this all comes as food and fuel prices seem to be rising daily.
