Did you have a tough time searching for jobs in your city in 2010? If so, year 2011 looks kinda promising, especially if you live in major metros like NY, Chi, DC & LA.
Looks like Detroit, Las Vegas & Cleveland are not among the top 20 hiring cities. Are they still in limbo?

They say (other posts) that Atlanta is making a recovery but I am not sure if that is because people are relocating to other states or if it's jobs that have relocated to Georgia. Anywho, glad to see we are on the list.
I wonder what percent of these numbers represent the "phantom" jobs that recruiters post every day?
