Although Canada's economy is on the rise to improvement, the US is getting hit by each passing month. US employers are making it challenging for the un-employed to obtain a job by advertising less about job openings because they are unable to afford to hire individuals. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/43310737/ns/business-stocks_and_economy/
The link discusses how fast the un-employed percentage is rising in the states and how advertising is related to that rise. Although we live in Canada and this issue is not a huge concern, we should remeber to not to rely on advertising for job positions since most employers do not advertise for these postions.
Thanks, Stephanie. It would be interesting to compare these figures with those across Canada. As of November last year, for example, it seems that the number of job postings in Saskatchewan had increased significantly: http://www.canadavisa.com/news/entry/record-high-number-of-job-postings-in-saskatchewan-101104.html.
