City of Industry, CA --(www.USEquityNews.com)-- 09/10/2008 - Internet Information Provider industry alert provided by U.S. Equity News. Continued bleak reports of the current U.S. employment situation are affecting job seekers' attitudes. The results of a new Yahoo! HotJobs survey reveal that one-third of survey respondents believe that landing a dream job in the current economy is just not possible. Separately, more than 50 percent of respondents see no relief in sight, pessimistically reporting that they expect the employment situation to only worsen over the next six months. Survey respondents (42 percent) assert that one of the biggest obstacles to finding a job in the current economy is that there are no openings at companies they are interested in or for positions respondents want. However, perception is not always reality. Yahoo! HotJobs announces the launch of the HotJobs 100, a resource for job seekers who want to know exactly where to find the jobs.
