Recruitment Site CareerBuilder Lays Off 300
December 10, 2008A bit ironic, but certainly not unexpected… Help-wanteds site CareerBuilder has cut 300 jobs—its own—mostly in its small business unit, Chicago Tribune reported. The company wouldn’t tell the Trib its current headcount, though its website does say it has 2,000 employees, suggesting that roughly 15 percent of its workforce is gone now. In another ironic twist, the layoffs were handed down on Friday—the same day the federal government announced that 553,000 jobs were lost in November, representing the highest monthly unemployment in 34 years.
