I thought this might be interesting to track every week. How big was the employment section in your local paper last weekend?

Ours was 3 pages in the Washington Post on Sunday the 25th. Normally it's extremely thick.

Not even one pager here...more like a column and half. Our paper is usually filled with default Mortgage notices!!!!

3 years ago the help wanted section would be 4 pages at a min.

Good thread Beth!!!

Only about 3 columns here and most is in healthcare. Companies are in layoff mode unfortunately with not many looking to hire.

Approximately 350 jobs listed in our county paper/website. Ironically 200 of them are in retail.
