Pasadena, CA — ConstructionCrossing has added more than 1,600 new construction jobs to its website in the last week, with the total construction job count now exceeding 9,000. ''Looking at the current construction job market scenario, this is a great achievement,'' says Harrison Barnes, CEO of ConstructionCrossing.
Unfortunately, the construction job market in general has taken a nosedive over the last year. According to the Illinois Department of Employment Security, a total of 7,900 construction jobs have been lost in the state since August 2007. In the Chicago region, the construction, financial, and manufacturing industries have suffered the biggest losses.
According to the US Labor Department, the unemployment rate jumped from 5.7% in July to 6.1% in August, the highest it has been in nearly five years. Numerous economists have predicted that it will exceed 7% by next year. ''Various real estate experts have also predicted a decline in new construction projects in the future, which means fewer construction job openings,'' adds Barnes.
''The construction job market has been facing tough times since last year, and there are no major signs of improvement. How, then, will a job seeker be able to find construction job openings? The good news is that there are new construction jobs created every day, but most of these are either hidden on employer career pages or lost on the overcrowded job boards. ConstructionCrossing, however, presents a wide range of construction job opportunities from every job board, employer career page, local classified, and other sources,'' adds Barnes.
''Plus, for a full seven days, ConstructionCrossing membership is free. With this free seven-day trial, users can not only view all the jobs on ConstructionCrossing but all the jobs listed on EmploymentCrossing as well,'' adds Barnes.
ConstructionCrossing is an affiliate of EmploymentCrossing, a powerful and comprehensive organization dedicated to helping professionals find jobs that will enhance their careers. ConstructionCrossing consolidates every construction job opening it can find in one convenient location. The website also offers a seven-day free trial to new members.
