''The job's open to everyone''

Speaking of Jobs (reports) ....

 

 

NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- President Obama last week promised a boom in manufacturing and 1 million new jobs if he is reelected.

But is the boom for real? For high-paying, skilled manufacturing jobs, it just might be.

 

The number of job openings forskilled factory workers has increased 38% since 2005, according to numbers from the Conference Board that measure labor demand across industries.

More strikingly, the sharpest increase in postings for skilled workers -- 152% -- has occurred in the last three or so years.

Postings, not actually filling. I applied for jobs back in May that are still listed as available, 5 months later.
