America’s Hottest Job Markets

Written by HV | February 2011

With a new year comes new hot job markets in the United States. Monster.com released a report showing the top ten job markets that are great places for job seekers to look. The hottest job markets are:

  1. Washington, D.C.
  2. San Francisco
  3. Boston
  4. Baltimore
  5. Seattle
  6. Minneapolis
  7. Cleveland
  8. Tampa
  9. Dallas
  10. Kansas City

Monster is also reporting that the information technology and health care industry are the winning industries to be in right now. The economic recovery has prompted many companies to spend more on IT infrastructure and install new technology. The health care industry has not been impacted much during the recession with many baby boomers, who previously had the health care skills, retiring and leaving positions wide open.
