The month of June was relatively stagnant for job postings, according to job site Indeed, which released its monthly employment trends report today.
Healthcare, retail, and human resources posted declines in June, while the other industries Indeed tracks only saw small increases.
Contrary to the poor housing market, the real estate job scene is humming with activity. Indeed reports that real estate job postings increased for the first time since November 2010. Job postings for property manager and leasing consultant positions received the most job seeker clicks.
From February through May, manufacturing job postings grew 6.5% per month. But the industry’s job postings slowed in June, increasing just 2%.
Job postings for hospitality and retail, industries which reflect consumer confidence, changed little in June.
On their blog, Indeed reports that Hospitality increased 1% month-over-month; retail declined 1%. Job postings in both industries grew strongly over the prior quarter.
