Don’t take that job and shove it quite yet. The market for jobs in advertising, media and marketing continues to be tepid, judging by the volume of help-wanted classified ads running in Adweek. Indeed, things regressed in April. After a first quarter of ups and downs, last month was almost uniformly down, with New England yielding the only number with a plus sign in front of it. While ad spending has shown some gains, this hasn’t prompted much hiring—not a good omen for job-seekers.



Remember that long-awaited recovery in the market for jobs in advertising, media and marketing? You can keep awaiting it.
