The MedZilla Report for April 2010 - Pharma Layoffs Drop Below 400 in March; Health Care Adds Another 27,000 Jobs
Date:4/15/2010

Analysts are saying that the U.S. is turning the corner on jobs, with the worst behind us. With only 308 job cuts announced in the pharmaceutical industry in March, 27,000 new health care jobs being added, and a steady unemployment rate for two years running, they may just be correct.

(Vocus) April 15, 2010 -- If the absence of bad news can be considered good news, then it is good news indeed that the pharmaceutical industry only reported 308 job losses in March. That information from outplacement research firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas, combined with an increase of 27,000 jobs in health care (and 631,000 since the recession began in December 2007), gave job seekers hope heading into the second quarter of 2010. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics also reported that the country's unemployment rate held steady at 9.7 percent for the second month in a row.

Many market analysts surveyed by the Associated Press indicated their belief that the U.S. job market is finally turning a corner, and research from MedZilla.com, the internet's leading source for pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and health care job information, seems to be bearing that up. In several states, significant monthly increases were made in candidate searches by companies. The highest jump was in Texas -- almost eight percent -- and five more states plus the United Kingdom all went up by more than two percent. The largest drop was in Georgia -- almost six percent. Of the candidates being sought, more than six percent are likely to be for research positions.
   
The largest geographical increase in job postings took place in Massachusetts, which saw almost 3.5 p
