2012 Job Market - In which the Tasks are, Where They Aren't and Other Employment Speculations
Measuring analytics, keyword phrases and locations of visitors to the corporate website of KAS Placement, I've come across some trends regarding in which the worst locations for employment are, why this really is (or speculation as to) and what cities and positions have near vanished due to the continuing poor economic conditions of our country and across the globe.
The Worst City for locating a Good Job:
Philadelphia - Bar none, this is the worst metro area for marketing and advertising jobs. This statement considers the number of people looking for work in sales, marketing and media relative to those of open, decently paying jobs in those disciplines. From every city in the United States, Philadelphia may be the 2nd favorite city to the website, however does not rank in the top ten in number of open jobs. I'd go as far to say that taking into account the ratio between open jobs in marketing and advertising an open people looking for work, Philadelphia is just as bad, otherwise worse than Miami, Phoenix, Vegas or any other cities that fell most victim towards the housing crisis.
Unsurprisingly, Philadelphia and Miami have crime rates which make New York City and Los Angeles seem suburban.
The greatest Industry Hiring Sales and Marketing Personnel:
Facebook Advertising and all sorts of Related - Often when an industry is hot, the recognition has a pending bubble burst, but industries associated with Facebook Advertising plus some social networking haven't hit that time yet. They still escalate and make jobs although other industries lack active hiring for sales and marketing personnel. Although this industry could be the hottest, it is also the most only at enter into for those travelling from outside the industry as a sales, marketing or media professional.
The Vanished Jobs in Marketing and advertising:
Pure Sales Management - When starting this agency nearly Many years ago, there was a dramatically higher demand for sales management professionals whose job description ended up being to simply manage the existing sales reps. The end goal within this positions was growing business for that company by improving the performance of their subordinates, rather than by start up business acquisition themselves along with any people management responsibilities. However, because of budgetary cutbacks and lower incomes and revenues than nearly about ten years ago, hiring companies are trying to get the most out of their sales management professionals by adding new sales requirements, whatever the quantity of sales professionals the managers have the effect of. Previously few years, pure sales management roles happen to be hard to come by and people available pay less on commission compared to what they accustomed to.
Gen. Marketing Jobs - The interest in intangible marketing professionals such as "branding experts" has greatly diminished. Many job seekers in the field have decided to visit independent, as these types of marketing jobs appear to be first out and last in. The marketing job seekers that hiring companies want these days understand how to formulate, program and design blogs, social networking outlets, seo, ppc and even some web programming. Marketing went from creative to more analytical and continues this progression apace, while the economy remains in a continuously poor, dark state.
A Bright Spot within the Foreseeable Hiring Future:
By the past few months, our staffing agency has seen a lot of smaller, start-up companies searching for sales and marketing professionals around the U.S. - even just in smaller cities such as Denver, Seattle and Oklahoma City. Some of this growth is a result of venture capital while other drivers include companies happening the offensive to try and grow market share within the respective industry.
