I am in the engineering field in Houston. Five years ago the Chronicle, as in the ten preceding years, would typically have 6-8 pages of adds for technical employees. For the last 2-3 years the Sunday adds have been one column on a single page. Sometimes only even half a column. It would appear that job advertisements for engineers and scientists are down around 90% from previous levels. I don't know what the job adds look like in other cities but here it is rather bleak. I have heard that it is similar in many other cities. This would be the first indication of rising employment if it is truly rising. There is no indication here.
