Partner Steven Eckhaus Quoted in Wall Street Journal on Decline in Finance Jobs

Steven Eckhaus, Chair of the firm’s Executive Employment Practice, was quoted in an article in the Wall Street Journal on falling employment statistics at financial services firms in New York State. Although employment in the same category rose slightly in New York City, the decline snaps a streak of five consecutive months of employment gains in the sector. “I think it's a sign that companies had been hiring in anticipation of an economy that recovered, but the reality is that it really hasn't fully recovered,” says Mr. Eckhaus.
