John Barrett's Q2 2012 Digital Media Hiring Index Featured in the Boston Globe

Posted by Jessica Gentile on Tue, Jul 17, 2012 @ 01:50 PM

The Boston Globe article, "Which Boston Internet and Digital Media Companies Added the Most Jobs in Q2," features Cook Associates Managing Director John Barrett’s quarterly hiring index. The index (created by John) uses LinkedIn to examine 137 Internet and digital media companies that have 10 or more employees in Boston, and see whether they are adding jobs, cutting jobs, or staying the same. In Q2, Barrett found that his cohort of 137 companies added 400 jobs. Fifty-nine percent increased their headcount, 31 percent decreased it, and 10 percent kept it stable. The index also covers digital media companies in New York City, although this article focuses on Boston’s results only. To read the full story, click here.
