Job Openings up in September
By joshua | Dated: 11-10-2009
A new survey from the Labor Department says that job openings were up in September. Job openings were also up in August, making this the first two month increase since early 2007. This is good news for a struggling job market and many analysts are pointing to this as evidence that jobs are starting to catch up with the rebounding economy.Hotels, health care, restaurants and education showed the largest increase but the good news is that even struggling sectors of the economy like manufacturing and professional services posted modest gains. This is particularly important because these are sectors that tend to move in sync with the economy as a whole.
