Oregon's Help Wanted Online Ad Volume Increased in October

Online job ads increased by about 1,300 in October, according to The Conference Board's Help Wanted Online (HWOL) data series. This was a modest increase, and continues Oregon's upward trend in online ads. Online ads are used to gain some insight into labor demand.

Since January 2013, an index of total ads shows that Oregon's ads have grown more than ads for the United States as a whole.
