Miami is currently experiencing a boom in start-up activity, with an ever growing number of entrepreneurs and new business owners setting up shop in the city.

Post this

Miami, Florida (PRWEB) December 06, 2014 -- There was good news this week for US job seekers, as it was announced that the national unemployment rate had fallen to 5.8%, the lowest rate since the recession. However despite the low unemployment rate, many Americans are still struggling to find work, with the majority believing that their hometowns or cities simply do not offer adequate career opportunities. To assess the current state of job markets across America, job site Indeed.com conducted a study to find the easiest and hardest US cities in which to get a job. The sites’ data team compared the populations of all the US cities against the job listings posted for each area and identified both the best and worst cites of career opportunities. The study, which was published by Forbes on 7 November 2014, found that Miami was in fact the worst city for jobseekers, with only 23 jobs per 1000 residents. The Plato Group, a Miami based sales and marketing firm strongly disagree with the study’s findings and believe from their own experiences in the city that there are plenty of opportunities available to those looking for work.

With so many exciting new businesses opening up in the city in a regular basis, The Plato Group believe that there is ample opportunity for jobseekers to become part of young, fresh companies where their input could make a real difference to the businesses.

The Plato Group also believe that the job market in Miami is in a far healthier state than reported due to their own experiences within their own business.

To support their expansion the firm pushed for a huge recruitment drive, leading to them increasing their workforce by 120% in just 12 months. The Plato Group believe that although the recent study showed Miami in a negative light, in reality there are plenty of career options available in the city. "There are a lot of options out there, particularly for ambitious hardworking individuals," says Steve Dongo, Managing Director of The Plato Group, who has worked hard over the last year to build the firm up and increase their vital workforce.
