“The last three months have shown a sharp upturn in employer demand for workers,” said Gad Levanon, Associate Director, Macroeconomic Research at The Conference Board. “These increases have brought us back near the labor demand levels that existed in November 2008 just prior to the huge losses resulting from the financial turmoil in the last quarter of 2008. This is very good news since these seasonally adjusted increases come in two months when we normally see employers cut back on advertising for workers.”
