The economy is improving and this is supposed to ease unemployment rate for 2010. Looking back, the situation wasn’t very good a year ago and we saw many being retrenched and laid off from their jobs.

With more demand than supply in the job market, employers are more stringent in choosing the right staff. In some industries, employment screening is important as no one likes to train the wrong people! Everyday there are new businesses being added to the job market and hopefully that will improve the economy and lower unemployment rate. There is also a rise in home businesses in the last year as more grab the opportunity to seek alternatives in their careers. On the upside of things, the economy will hopefully rise to stability and we can see a growth in the next half of the year.
