Sharp Rise in Online Recruitment Activity Nationwide
 Continued Labor Market Strength Indicated as Fall Hiring Season Approaches
NEW YORK, September 1, 2005 - U.S. online job demand and online recruitment activity surged significantly higher in August over July, according to the latest findings of the Monster Employment Index. Nearly all industries as well as all occupations, regions and states measured strong growth in online job availability in August, as the Index jumped eight points from 134 in July 2005 to 142 in August, establishing a new all-time high. The record rise in August was a sharp rebound from the brief seasonal slowdown measured in July, demonstrating continued strength in U.S. online job demand at the outset of the fall hiring season. The Index is also up sharply - a total of 30 points - compared to August 2004, when it stood at 112.
