Need a Job? 14 Firms Hiring Big Time Now (BLOG)

While millions are out of work, many companies are having trouble hiring the right employees. These 14 firms have almost 10,000 openings available:

There's an interesting dynamic going on in the job market right now. Despite the fact that millions of people can't find jobs, millions of employers can't seem to find the right employees, either.

In case you missed it, last week, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that the economy created no jobs in August, and that the unemployment rate held steady at 9.1 percent.

At the same time, however, the BLS also reported that nearly 2.7 million jobs went unfilled in August, and, according to CareerBuilder's 2011 Q3 hiring forecast, 26 percent of employers report having difficulties filling open positions -- a 4 percent increase over 2010.

To help close this employment gap, and match job seekers in need of work with companies in need of their services, we've put together a list of employers that are hiring in large volume right now.
