MINNEAPOLIS, MN, November 30, 2009 - Steven Rothberg, President and Founder of CollegeRecruiter.com, has been selected as one of the presenters at the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) 2010 Annual Conference in Orlando next June.

"I've had the good fortune to be a presenter at the NACE annual conferences before and am excited about doing so again next spring. NACE conferences are always very well attended because they know what content their attendees want, don't accept payments of any kind in return for speaking slots like some other conferences do, and are impeccably organized," said Steven Rothberg.

Rothberg's presentation at the NACE conference will be entitled, "Taking Your Recruiting Message Mobile: Why, How, and When." During the presentation, he'll use humor to help ensure there's a healthy amount of interaction with the attendees as well as to illustrate his points about why, how, and when employers should use cell phone text messaging, multi-media messages (photos, videos, and other graphics sent phone-to-phone), and web sites which are built specifically to work well with a wide variety of mobile devices.

CollegeRecruiter.com will also have a prominent presence in the exhibition room hall of the conferences as CollegeRecruiter.com will have a booth staffed by Rothberg and other employees.

Georgia, Wisconsin and Arizona see increase in internship postings from October to November while North Carolina, Washington state and New Mexico see increase in entry level job postings during that same period.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

MINNEAPOLIS, MN, November 6, 2009 - There's been an increase in the number of internships and entry level jobs now actively being recruited for in most states, according to a recent study of employers conducted by CollegeRecuiter.com, the nation's leading job board for college students and new graduates. Some states, particularly those with smaller populations, haven't been faring as well.

Although states like Wyoming (56% fewer internship postings and 24% fewer entry level jobs) and Alaska (24% fewer internship postings and 30% fewer entry level jobs), have seen significant decreases in the number of internships and entry level jobs posted on CollegeRecruiter.com at the beginning of November, most others, like Maine (110% more internship postings and 12% more entry level jobs) and Hawaii (20% more internship postings and 20% more entry level jobs), have significantly higher numbers than this time in October.

"We were quite happy but not surprised to see the significantly higher number of job openings advertised on CollegeRecruiter.com," said Steven Rothberg, President and Founder. "Many of our employer clients have been telling us that they are or soon will be hiring again and not just one person here and there but dozens, hundreds, and even thousands of people. Our clients and job seeker users have endured a terrible recession but we're now all emerging from it together. We're all a bit battered and bruised, but we're also stronger and wiser. The labor market will likely take months and perhaps years to return to being robust, but we're on the way up rather than down and that's encouraging for all."

In an effort to aid job seekers struggling to find employment, CollegeRecruiter.com earlier this year initiated a monthly survey of their site to identify the states with the most, and the fewest, internships and entry level jobs posted by employers. The data, which is updated at the beginning of each month, is gathered through a review of recruitment trends from each state and the District of Columbia, with opportunities on CollegeRecruiter.com. The monthly review is intended to serve as a guide to help job seekers estimate the status of the job market in the states in which they live.

Of the five states with the most opportunities, New York is the only state to have suffered a loss, with a 14% decrease in internships and a 7% decrease in entry level jobs. Of the five states with the lowest number of entry level job and internship postings, Vermont was the only state to have an increase in the number of internship postings with 38%, while Wyoming was the only state to have a decrease in the number of entry level job postings with 24%.

Here are some of the states that have the most and fewest internships and entry level jobs available for October:

States With the Largest Number of Internships

States With the Largest Number of Entry Level Jobs

States With the Smallest Number of Internships

States With the Smallest Number of Entry Level Jobs

Take a look at these states that also saw an increase in the number of internships and entry level jobs posted to CollegeRecruiter.com in November:

• Georgia - 476 internships (up 49 % from 320 in October)
• Wisconsin - 362 internships (up 39% from 261 in October)
• Arizona - 251 internships (up 37% from 183 in October)
• North Carolina - 3,039 entry level jobs (up 11% from 2,730 in October)
• Washington - 2,482 entry level jobs (up 12% from 2,224 in October)
• New Mexico - 538 entry level jobs (up 14% from 470 in October)

The Washington, D.C. area, including Maryland and Virginia, has seen increases "across the board," enjoying a combined total of over 12,000 internship and entry level job postings for November.

• Washington, D.C. - 826 internships (up 6% from 721 in October) and 3,242 entry level jobs (up 11% from 2,913 in October)


• Maryland - 409 internships (up 46% from 281 in October) and 3,076 entry level jobs (up 21% from 2,538 in October)


• Virginia - 538 internships (up 13% from 477 in October) and 4,188 entry level jobs (up 8% from 3,860 in October)

More than just a job board, CollegeRecruiter.com has several blogs where employers, job seekers and students can find articles with helpful tips on how to manage their careers or job searches, how to write winning resumes and cover letters, or how to prepare and pay for college. Site visitors can also find great resources like ebooks, Webinars and a salary calculator.
