US Online Job Market declines 4.4% in November.
Online labor demand dropped another 4.4% in the United States in November. Part of the decline is a seasonal adjustment which is common around this time of the year. This year it adds to the lackluster labor market making it even harder for the unemployed. Year-over-year demand is up only 1.8% leaving much to wish for during the holiday season.
