Hi Everyone,
I thought I would post the latest hiring figures from an article that I had in my latest newsletter. While this is not a direct "aviation" hiring report, I am a firm believer that hiring effects everything. As the economy continues to improve, so does the need for travel. Whether it be business or pleasure, people tend to have more income for extra trips. While I am no economist, I am hoping that the optimistic outlook will get people back on the airplanes.

For instance, I put out a newsletter more frequently toward the end of the year and the beginning of the following year because that is when hiring is most likely to occur.
Most corporations get their hiring budgets finalized in the October/November timeframe and start the hiring process after Thanksgiving and it continues through March.
