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.

Minneapolis is close to tops in unemployment rate yet it doesn't crack the top 20 in open jobs? Strange!

I wonder what percent of these numbers represent the "phantom" jobs that recruiters post every day?
