Job Hunting Online on the Increase

The Career Planning and Job Hunting Online report by eMarketer analyzes how the Internet is changing the way job seekers find employment—and employers fill jobs. There was a 28% increase in the number of online job ads in October 2006 from one year ago. The largest number of online job ads was for management and professional positions, such as sales. The typical visitor to a career web site has annual household income exceeding $60,000. The demographic of the typical Internet user, which has been holding steady since the birth of the Internet, has been higher educated white people with higher incomes. 

For lower level positions that require less skill, temporary staffing agencies are being utilized more. People with incomes of less than $15,000 per year are utilizing staffing agencies to find a job. Companies are finding it much more cost effective to recruit online for managerial and professional positions since the cost per hire is dramatically higher for these positions. It is only a matter of time that all recruiting will be done online.
