No Little Town Blues: NYC Offers the Most Top Jobs


Regains Status as Hottest Market

Big Jobs in the Big Apple: New York has supplanted San Francisco as the hottest job market for jobs paying $100,000 or more, according to a quarterly summary produced by TheLadders.com, an online job service. There are more than three job seekers for every six-figure job available in the Big Apple, with MetLife, Global Financial Services Co., Avaya, Schering-Plough and Merck doing much of the high-end hiring. New York is attracting the most job seekers from other parts of the country. San Francisco and Boston also remain strong as companies like Cisco Systems, Google, Sun Microsystems, Fidelity Investment and Liberty Mutual all are seeking to increase their management ranks, according to TheLadders.com. Detroit, Dallas and Tampa, Florida, all have seen decreases in out-of-state job searches.
