Worst Job Right Now?

How would you like to be a recruiter or corporate head hunter right now? I'm guessing that the employment industry is at least as bad as the real estate one right now.

Companies aren't looking to hire and the ones that are can pay pennies because they have so many applicants. I'm guessing the percentage that the recruiters get of those pennies is not what it used to be.

Of course I don't know for sure if companies are hiring at lower rates. Frankly I doubt it, but if someone told me it was true I would probably believe it It's simple supply and demand.

Hopefully all of this will turn around soon. I just hope that the gas prices stay low when it does.
