My question is primarily asked because there are a lack of jobs out there vs the number of job seekers trafficking the job boards. I can see why the high traffic is significant to online job boards but is it significant for out of work job seekers? I recently read that one company had a job opening and over 6,500 seekers applied. Thanks! Hi Vanessa,
