Editor's Notes

  • #13 The number of average daily searches jumped from 4 million in 2008 to 5.2 million during the recession in 2009 Many employers could afford to pull back on third party advertisements as they were inundated with applications from their Career Sites & other sources. December 2010 the MEI saw an increase of 13% YOY. Conversely, the average number of responses per job DECREASED 13% YOY. As the market becomes more saturated with jobs and less saturated with active seekers, employers will need to do more to attract the talent they need.
  • #14 - National unemployment is beginning to moderately decline, and the number of online opportunities is steadily on the rise (refer back to the MEI). As the employment market continues to shift, seekers (active, passive or poised) will have more choice among opportunities. How will employers stand out as the market becomes more saturated with new openings? Historical reference point. In October of 2007 the MEI value was 188 points, and unemployment was near 5%. In December of 2010, the MEI was 130 points and unemployment is 9.4%.* Encourage recruiters and managers to reflect on the recruiting challenges they had only 3yrs ago. You will notice that 2007 and 2008 are a mirror images of 2009 and 2010. It’s reasonable to expect the MEI and Unemployment to continue moving towards pre-recession levels. *Note - (The MEI takes a comprehensive look at competitor sites, career sites, newspapers, and various other sources in key markets. Not just Monster).
