 Executive Summary
• Hiring returns to pre-recession levels. After months of steady increases, nationwide
hiring returned to pre-recession levels in March. Job openings increased 4.1% from
February 2011 and 39.1% from March 2010, resulting in over 5 million job listings posted
throughout the month. “The significant employment gains over the last year make up
only a portion of the total jobs lost in the recession,” said Gautam Godhwani, CEO of
SimplyHired.com. “But now that job listings are finally up to their 2007 level, we can begin
to talk about real job recovery.”

• Financial industry strengthens. The financial services sector continued to solidify,

gaining 6.1% in hiring within the industry, and 40.8% in hiring for Financial Specialists and
Accountants across all industries. This robustness was further supported by the return
of major accounting, banking and consulting companies to the top employers list in New
York, the nation’s financial capital.

• Major hiring continues in healthcare. Healthcare employers continued to dominate the

Top Hiring Companies by Metro, comprising 45% of the list; HCA Healthcare was the top
employer nationwide, with 20,000+ job openings. While the healthcare industry itself
decreased hiring slightly (-0.6%), hiring for Doctors, Nurses, Therapists and Health Techs
across all industries grew by 4.2%.

• Decreased hiring in Florida and Ohio. Seven of 50 metros posted negative changes in
job openings for the month, predominantly in Florida and Ohio: Tampa & St. Petersburg
(-3.9%), Jacksonville (-2.9%), Miami & Ft. Lauderdale (-1.7%), Orlando (-0.2%), Cleveland
& Akron (-1.1%) and Columbus (-0.9%). The seventh metro was Nashville (TN), which
declined -0.6% in job openings.

Employment Impact: Rising Oil Prices

• Slight decline in transportation hiring. Less than a month after oil prices reached
$100/barrel, job openings in the transportation industry decreased slightly, by -2.2%.
While travel hiring gained a significant 21.3% in March, recent airline fare increases
and other attempts to offset rising oil costs indicate that the full impact on hiring in
oil-reliant industries remains to be seen.

Local Market Outlook
HIGHLIGHTS

• Optimal hiring conditions in Austin. Newly added to the most populous metros list, Austin (TX)
had some of the best hiring conditions in March. Austin posted the highest month-over-month
increase in job openings at 21.3%, almost double the next highest increase of 11.4% in Grand
Rapids (MI). It was also one of the least competitive metros, with a 2:1 unemployment ratio.

• Competitive job market in Las Vegas. Also newly added, Las Vegas (NV) entered the
employment report as the second-most competitive metro. With an 8:1 unemployment ratio, Las
Vegas tied with Miami & Fort Lauderdale (FL) as one of the most difficult places to obtain a job.

Industry and Occupation Outlook
HIGHLIGHTS

• Increased travel hiring. Hiring in the travel industry increased 21.3%, the largest growth across all
industries for the month. This continued growth from January and February is an indicator of the
industry’s improved health and the start of seasonal hiring, as the summer vacation season nears.

• Construction hiring increases. While hiring for both Retail Salespersons and Financial Specialists
and Accountants continued to post the strongest growths, the most interesting change was the
10.1% increase in Construction and Extraction hiring. This first real growth in a long-struggling
industry is likely the result of increased residential construction and mining work.

 About the U.S. Employment Trends Report

The U.S. Employment Trends Report is a monthly summary and analysis of employment
trends in the United States. These findings are based on monthly job seeker activity on
SimplyHired.com, which aggregates millions of listings from over 30,000 employment
sites, and data obtained from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Some findings may be
projected from recent historical data. Data may not be representative of all industries,
occupations and/or metro areas. “Metropolitan Areas” in this report are the 50 most
populous in the U.S., as ranked by the Nielsen Company’s Designated Market Area (DMA)
list. “Occupation Categories” are derived from the Department of Labor’s O*NET database.
