Healthcare Sector's Online Job Ads Falter
John Commins, for HealthLeaders Media, November 3, 2009
Bureau of Labor Statistics show that the healthcare sector is one of the few areas in the economy that has seen monthly job growth throughout the recession, although that growth has slowed considerably in 2009.
Among the top 10 occupations in October with online advertised vacancies, sales and related occupations, which have remained relatively flat over the last six months, saw the largest gain, rising 46,100 in October, the Conference Board reports.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics is expected this week to report that the nation's unemployment rate is at 10% or higher.
