Poll Shows Job Security Fading: Two-thirds of Americans say job security is worse than when the economic recovery officially began two years ago, according to a Time Magazine-CNN poll. And while 54% of the 1,000 adults surveyed said it will be harder to find a job in the coming 12 months compared to the previous year, only 29% expect job hunting to get easier. The poll, conducted for Time’s Nov. 22 issue, also showed that 53% of those who see job security as declining expect the situation to be a long-term problem. Only 22% of Americans say job security is better today than two years ago, according to the survey, which was conducted by Yankelovich Partners. The poll had a margin of error of plus or minus 3%.
