Job Market Slows in New Brunswick

The latest job market outlook shows conditions aren't very rosy in this province. The Canadian Job Market Report by CareerAIM.com says new jobs in the fourth quarter of the year declined in every Canadian province except for Quebec and Saskatchewan.

Job postings in this province tumbled 17.2 percent between August and September this year--and--the year over year job posting rate fell sharply, down 16.4 percentage points in September. That approaches the lowest point seen so far in the current recession.
