Who’s hiring? 2012 edition

As assured as the earth will make one full turn on its axis every “day,” so too is the publication of “Who’s hiring” lists and “our labor market in review” articles at the outset of every New Year. Each New Year, virtually everyone with a horse in the “jobs” game—from blogs, to multinational corporations, like CareerBuilder, has a list to share. Publishing these lists have become somewhat of a tradition here at the Career Services Blog (after all, who doesn’t want to know who’s hiring?). With that in mind, I have posted the top 5 employers who are hiring in 2012 from a list recently published on CareerBuilder’s blog TheWorkBuzz, and, just for some contrast, the top 5 jobs that “died” in 2011, according to Monster. In addition, Forbes recently published a rather short, yet (what I consider to be) clear-eyed assessment of what 2012 may bring for American labor markets.

From TheWorkBuzz’s “Companies Hiring in 2012”:

  1. AmeriLife
  2. Apex
  3. Astellas Pharma US, Inc.
  4. Catholic Healthcare West
  5. Charming Shoppes Inc.

From Monster’s “Jobs that Died in 2011”:

  1. US Postal Service Carrier
  2. Real Estate Agents
  3. Video Store Clerk
  4. Toll Operators/Operators
  5. Stock Brokers
