Not so long ago, employees desperately clung to jobs, due to concerns about the economic downturn and high unemployment. However, the Q1 Glassdoor.com Employment Confidence Survey suggests this trend may be starting to erode.
In a survey conducted among 2,045 U.S. adults age 18 years and older, Glassdoor.com found that 40 percent of those polled believe it’s “likely” they could find a new job matched to their experience and compensation levels within six months if they lost their job right now. This result represents the highest percentage in six quarters.
The survey, conducted by Harris Interactive, also pointed out that roughly one-third of those polled were uncertain they could find a new job matched to skills and compensation levels in a six-month period, while 28 percent believed it “unlikely” they could do so.
