While the number of temporary positions fell sharply in the U.S., during the recent recession the ranks of involuntary part-timers (full time work not available) has doubled to 9.2 million people.
I wonder if these people are counted in our 10% national unemployment figure? Probably not!
I feel grateful that unemployment in the insurance sector is only in the 2% range, but, I still lament at those whom I know that I can’t find a position for.
Yes... hiring has picked up, but the roadblocks of going from candidate to actual hired employee have become larger.
