Among those who are the most likely to do online searches for jobs: * Young Internet users between the ages of 18 and 29. Some 61% of them have looked for jobs online, compared to 42% of those ages 30-49 and 27% of those ages 50-64. * Men. Some 50% of online men had sought job information, compared to 44% of online women. On a typical day, twice as many online men are job hunting as women. * The unemployed. About 51% of those who do not currently have jobs have Internet access. On a typical day, a tenth of the unemployed with Internet access are online scouring job sites, compared to 4% of the wired Americans who have full-time jobs. * African-Americans and Hispanics. While 44% of whites have done online job seeking, close to 60% of African-Americans and Hispanics with Internet access have sought job information on the Internet. * Those in sales-related jobs. Some 55% of those with Internet access who currently hold media sales jobs have looked for new job information online, compared to 44% of the online executives and professionals, and 49% of the wired clerical and office workers. However, on a typical day online the most active job searchers are online office workers. Skilled laborers and service workers are the least likely to have done job hunting online. * Those in higher income brackets and with high education levels. High socioeconomic status is correlated with online job searching. Those who live in households with incomes over $75,000 are more likely than others with lesser incomes to have done job searches online, and those with college or graduate degrees are more likely than those with high school diplomas to have explored the job classifieds online. Overall, these figures represent a more than 60% jump in the number of online job hunters from March 2000 when the project first asked about the subject. ============================================================================ Cartoon of the Week... ============================================================================ MORE - http://www.myinsurancejob.com/ezine/ezine.html#2 ============================================================================ BOOK OF THE WEEK ============================================================================ MORE - http://www.myinsurancejob.com/ezine/ezine.html#3 ============================================================================ SPECIAL ============================================================================ Site of the Week... - http://www.myinsurancejob.com/ezine/ezine.html Talk Back Forum... - http://www.myinsurancejob.com/faqs/config.cgi ============================================================================ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- You were sent this newsletter because of your affiliation with the Insurance Industry and/or your interest in working in the Insurance Industry.
