Interesting interview with Monster CEO Sal Iannuzi about the state of the job search giant and the economy. Enjoy.

Comment by Eric Shannon on May 12, 2008 at 10:43am: Chris, you are great at ferreting out really interesting stuff, thank you!
Sal, it's not about innovation...

Comment by Austin Lavin on May 12, 2008 at 2:54pm: Interesting interview, but I'd like to hear what he thinks about the growth of niche job sites.

Comment by Dennis Gorelik on May 12, 2008 at 2:58pm: "We are slowing down, but we have good excuses for that: slow economy and reorganization".

Comment by Melanie Blakeley on May 13, 2008 at 2:54pm: Chris, I don't know how as Eric says " ferret" this stuff out but its always interesting .. keep up the good work and thanks for posting

Comment by Diana Corso on May 14, 2008 at 5:51pm: Thanks Chris for posting that. Sal seems optimistic but not enthusiastic. I believe that niche boards will flourish in the next year because of the slow economy. Let me explain. With a slow economy and a decrease in jobs, more and more people will be posting to Monster and CareerBuilders. I believe that the competition in the general population on the general boards will be fierce. In a niche situation, the jobseeker will be up against only his/her demographic.
