New York’s Job Market is Strong, Despite Indications to the Contrary

Filed under: Job Market, New York — CollegeCourses @ 1:28 pm

The New York Federal Reserve has reported that, despite numbers pointing to slower levels of job creation, the job market in New York is as strong as ever. Job creation has been climbing steadily in New York for the last decade, but while the market does not currently match up to the levels experienced at the height of the dot-com era, and while fewer jobs are being created now than during the last stock-market boom, there are several indications that the job-seekers in New York have reason to be optimistic. Among these indicators are wages and income, which analysts use as an alternative to brute payroll statistics for measuring the strength of a job market. Read the full story here.

This news is as obviously positive for job-hunters nationwide as it is for those solely based in New York. Remember, the national economy often goes as New York goes–just call to mind the post-Sept. 11 backlash that was experienced throughout the world, not just the USA. The key to career success remains, as always, adequate training.
