A snapshot of publicly posted in-house job openings at Go In-house from May 6, the day on which I’m writing this column: Forty-six positions nationally, including three with Facebook (New York, Texas and California), three with United Health Group (Connecticut and Minnesota), and one with AbbVie (Illinois). Those are only the positions posted on May 6. Review postings for the past 30 days, and the total is in the hundreds.
I’m not trying to sugar coat anything—readers of this column know that is not my style. Candor rules. Many companies will be in general hiring freeze or reduction-in-force mode for an indefinite period of time. But this month’s column is intended to serve as a reminder that hiring indeed continues, and some of the needs are pressing.
