The Top 50 Hardest Cities to Get a Job

From Juju.com --August 2010 --

Juju.com, a leading job search engine, has
released the updated Job Search
Difficulty Index, which measures the difficulty of finding employment in
major cities around the country. The Index was calculated by dividing the
number of unemployed workers in each metro area, as reported by the Bureau
of Labor Statistics (BLS), by the number of jobs in Juju's comprehensive
index of millions of online jobs in the United States, which is compiled and
updated continuously from thousands of employer career portals, recruiter
websites, and job boards all over the Internet.

The Job Search Difficulty Index provides a useful guide to the relative difficulties faced by job seekers in particular geographies, but should be considered in the context of the well known challenges of measuring and analyzing unemployment data.
