Looking For Social Media Jobs In Boston
January 28, 2007
In my continuing search for data about the discussion as to whether Boston is a good place to sell social media services or not (Boston Companies Don't Have The Zing For Social Media, Yet), I found this article on A VC about ranking startup cities. The article is unrelated to the question, but it does give some great data on Boston's standing in the size of the technology community overall here in the Boston area.
Fred Wilson had conducted some research using data from a job aggregator company he invests into. Here are the stats:
San Francisco, CA 2,288 jobs
Boston, MA 1,815 jobs
NYC... 1,625 jobs jobs
Seattle, WA 1,126 jobs
Austin, TX 372 jobs
What I really need to do I suppose is analyze the job board states for brand companies (clients) in each of the regions for jobs that have descriptions that include mention of social media or web 2.0.
