We're not seeing as many Healthcare positions as we did in our June article. However, Live Caregiver still holds the #1 spot. Registered Nurse dropped down the list from 5 to 10. Pharmacist and Physiotherapist are no longer on the list. Instead, Sales and Service occupations have the highest demand followed by Business, Finance and Administrative occupations.

When comparing the 50 Most Common Job Titles Posted Online in the US vs. Canada, it's interesting to see that Registered Nurse appears on both lists among the top 10 most advertised jobs along with Administrative Assistant, Sales Representative, and Project Managers. More IT positions appear throughout the US list, whereas there doesn't seem to be as strong of a demand for these positions in Canada.
