Job Hunting in a Tight Market. There are many unanswered questions about today's job market: Will the economy get worse before it gets better? Will companies lay off more people? Can I still find a new job?Any answer is, of course, an educated guess at best. Yet, you shouldn't assume that tight budgets and slowed job growth -- if they continue -- mean everyone is tied to their current jobs
