Relocation for Employment at Record Low - ERI Economic Research Institute

Relocation for Employment at Record Low - ERI Economic Research Institute...

A study of 3,000 successful job seekers by the outplacement consultancy Challenger, Gray and Christmas found the lowest level of job-seeker relocation in the 25 years it has been tracking this metric. Only 6.9 percent
of job-seekers who found employment in the third quarter relocated for the new position, compared to a relocation rate of 13.4 percent in the same quarter a year ago; while this continues a long term trend, the recent
downturn has been much more rapid.
