This is false! You are 1/n to them and they are 1/m to you. Where n=number of job seekers and m=number of employers. Both numbers are very high.
EDIT: You can have many employers over your lifetime, and you are not bound to any one during your job search. m does not equal 1.
- pmiller2 10y agoNo, m=1, typically, because most people only have/can have one employer.
- sidlls 10y agoMost of the time m is a number smaller than 10. For many small businesses n might be the same order of magnitude, but for often it is at least an order of magnitude greater. The ratios just aren't close in most cases.
