How Job Seekers Are Using Mobile [INFOGRAPHIC]

The jobless rate is hovering above 9%, and job seekers have to be more savvy than ever to land a job. In fact, 77% of job-seekers are using mobile apps in their search. Why mobile? For one thing, people almost always have their phones on them, which means they can get job leads on the fly and respond faster than on their not-as-portable laptops. Not surprisingly, Android, which is dominating the smartphone market, is the most-used OS for these on-the-go job seekers.

Check out the infographic below to see how people are using mobile apps and devices, and take a look at other career information in our weekly Job Search Series.
