According to WANTED Analytics, in June 2011, corporate staffing agencies and recruiters posted over 2,300 new job ads online for marketing managers that have skills with social media, which represents a growth of 71 percent over the demand from the same time in 2010.

According to the data provided by this top source of real time intelligence for the business talent marketplace, social media is now considered to be a common requirement for new marketing manager positions.

The greatest demand for workers with these skills came from New York and the surrounding area, where there were more than 300 newly posted jobs online. A close second was the San Francisco area, which advertised 220 new jobs online for people with those skills. Though the majority of American metropolitan areas increased in their demand for workers with these abilities, L.A. led the way in growth with an increase of 80 percent over last year.

The hiring situation across the country differs depending on the specific locations and the size of the social media marketers talent pool. Among the five cities where the demand was the greatest, it is Chicago recruiters that are predicted to face the greatest challenges in meeting their hiring needs.

The WANTED Analytics Hiring Scale for Chicago showed that the quantity of the needed talent is comparatively small there, which will lead employers to have to compete over the candidates with the best qualifications. Therefore, it is also likely that Chicago recruiters will need to spend more energy and money on sourcing their candidates than the average for the rest of the country.
