Positive Hiring Trends: 3 Sectors that are hiring

Oct. 22, 2011 - PRLog -- This is our continuing coverage on sectors and companies that are hiring, here are 4 more industries we have identified which are expanding and recruiting.

Social Media Marketing Firms

In addition to large social media companies such as Facebook or LinkedIn, one sector that has been growing very fast is the Social Media Marketing firms. These companies have enjoyed exponential growth as when Google was first launched, where it has created numerous opportunities for SEO marketing firms.

Social Media has brought in even bigger marketing opportunities than Google search engine. Companies in this field have been hiring technical and sales & marketing professionals, and this is a global business, I have seen companies that has grown from 5 people to 100 people within 2 years due to the work volume and new social media platforms launched everyday.

There are too many firms to cover in one article, so go to search engine and search for social media marketing firms, you maybe surprised to see how many of them are hiring new talent.



Sports Marketing Firms



Well, it is towards the end of Major League Baseball season, and NFL and NHL had both started, it is a pity that NBA is still locked in the dispute. One sector that has been growing is the sports marketing.



Sport marketing is divided into three sectors. The first is the advertising of sport and sports associations such as the Olympics, Spanish Football league and the NFL; as well as international sports events.



The second concerns the use of sporting events, sporting teams and individual athletes to promote various products. The third is the promotion of sport to the public in order to increase participation.



Sports marketing firms have been growing for several reasons; more sports, more activities, more international coverage and also growth of online marketing channels.

There are hundreds of major sporting marketing firms spreading around the world, with major markets including the United States, Japan, United Kingdom and India, as well as companies in Europe and Canada. This is an industry that has good potential for professionals with marketing and international marketing experience.

Venture Capital & Private Equity Firms

The level of venture capital investments have recovered strongly last 2 years, in many sectors, the level of investments had reached pre-2008 crash level, particularly for the technology and cleantech sectors.

The level of takeovers and investments by private equity funds have also reached new level, this is interesting considering the equity market had been very volatile.

One argument behind this growth is that, investors feel it is better to invest in “businesses” than the sharemarkets. Another reason is availability of large number of undervalued companies to private equity investors.

I have worked in the venture capital industry for a number of years; it is a dynamic industry to be and great opportunities to meet with other industry experts.
