Employment Index shows double-digit gain in managerial hiring

Managerial recruitment activity rose last month to its highest level since March 2008.

Cities leading the increase in per capita hiring were Pittsburgh (+13%) and Cleveland (+11%), followed by Cincinnati (+7%) and St. Louis (+7%). However, Boston and Riverside both lost 10%. Washington, D.C., at 176, is still the city to beat with the most managerial job activity despite a static July, while Riverside continues to be the lowest ranking city at 18.

“It’s exciting to see consistent gains nationally in managerial hiring,” says Tony Lee, publisher, http://www.CareerCast.com. “Even though the West still remains the nation’s weakest area given that the other regions are all now over 100, it had the strongest increase (+8.9 to 88.6) this month.”

“The upward trend in managerial hiring is a positive indicator of job growth,” says Jay Martin, COO, JobSerf. “And, if the numbers continue to stay above pre-recession job-listing levels, managerial recruitment could be the leading edge indicator of improvement in all levels of employment.”

The CareerCast.com/JobSerf Employment Index is an exclusive barometer showing managerial hiring activity based on the number of jobs posted online nationally. The Index reveals the differences in job listings by month, and offers valuable trends and forecasts using proprietary employment data hand-counted by a team of researchers.
