COLUMBUS, Ohio—Ohio’s unemployment rate remains above the national average at 7.3 percent.
But national numbers show unemployment in the nation increased from 6.5 percent in October to 6.7 percent in November. Many people are looking for ways to better market themselves, NBC 4‘s Tacoma Newsome reported.
Experts at a local temporary staffing agency said news in the auto and manufacturing industry is not getting better in 2009. But, Amy Harkins of Proteam Staffing said, temporary work is becoming a viable option to recently laid-off workers.
Harkins said there is a high probability that temporary contracts lead to long-term employment.
In addition to finance positions, the information technology field is expected to see a 4 percent increase.
