| “Online advertised vacancies were basically unchanged (down 15,700) in November to 4,719,900, according to The Conference Board Help Wanted OnLine® (HWOL) Data Series….
“’Hurricane Sandy pushed the national labor demand into negative territory as declines along the East Coast more than offset the gains in States in the central and western U.S,’ said June Shelp, Vice President at The Conference Board. 'The hurricane effect on the East Coast impacted job demand from Virginia to Massachusetts and contributed to a combined drop of 20,000 in New York and New Jersey. As we head into the final month of the year, November has left the average monthly national gain for the eleven months of 2012 at a very weak 36,000/month.'” 12-Month Change: Nevertheless, as compared to the same month a year ago, online help-wanted ads were up 12.5% nationally, 5.2% in Connecticut, and 7.1% in Hartford [the only city in CT for which data are reported].
