My best advice to anyone who is currently unemployed would be to apply for a government job–they seem to be the only ones hiring!  Bloomberg.com<\/a> reported today that according to Labor Department figures payrolls rose by 431,000 last month, including a 411,000 jump in government hiring of temporary workers for the 2010 census.  Private payrolls increased 41,000.  The current jobless rate is 9.7 percent. <\/p>\n

“The so-called underemployment rate — which includes part- time workers who’d prefer a full-time position and people who want work but have given up looking — decreased to 16.6 percent from 17.1 percent. <\/em><\/p>\n

“The number of temporary workers increased 31,000. Payrolls at temporary-help agencies often picks up before companies take on permanent staff.”<\/em> <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
