Could it be all the talk about wars for talent and too many jobs chasing too few candidates is making accountants and financial pros feel good? The Hudson Employment Index for accounting and finance professionals - which measures worker confidence in the employment market - spiked in November to a high for the year - 117.2, 10 points up from October. The survey also found 77 percent of accounting and finance workers are happy at their jobs, up from 72 percent in October.
A red flag, though: While 58 percent had a favorable view of their finances in November, the percentage reporting their finances were getting worse rose from 34 to 37 percent.
The index results from a survey of 9,000 U.S. workers conducted by the recruiting and staffing firm Hudson, a division of the Hudson Highland Group. It's one of those measures that can be a useful indicators of how people in the real world view employment trends. If you like numbers, dig in here.
