Online Job Posting Trends

Weddle’s offer’s a bi-weekly newsletter about Internet resources for recruiting & HR professionals. In a survey conducted between March 10 and May 10, 2007 they asked the following question:

Of the openings you’ve posted online, what level were they at:

  • Hourly positions? 7.7%
  • Entry-level professional positions? 23%
  • Mid-level professional positions? 46.2%
  • Senior-level professional positions? 7.7%
  • Managerial positions? 11.5%
  • Executive positions? 3.9%

It is interesting that Mid-level professional is the largest group followed second by entry-level. I believe we’ll continue to see these two categories grow in the coming years. It will be interesting to watch the growth of niche job boards and of the networking sites liked LinkedIn, Jigsaw and Facebook to see what effect they have on the big boards.
