According to a survey, "U.S. employers are planning a conservative approach to hiring in this year's fourth quarter...[and] nearly three-fifths, or 58 percent, of employers do not plan a change in the pace of hiring from the third quarter."
The survey, put out by Manpower, "a short-term staffing company," questioned 14,000 employers. And while 9 percent of those surveyed "expect to see a decrease" and 6 percent were undecided, "[27%] of those surveyed expect to increase the hiring pace."
Hiring looks particularly positive in the West, especially for service employers. Twenty-four percent of companies are also optimistic and expect to increase their staffs in the coming months.
