I don't regularly use either one, but I was under the impression that the situation is rather the reverse: Clojure is quite popular among hobbyists but doesn't get a lot of serious industry usage (perhaps excepting some stuff in the web space, which I don't really follow), while Haskell has a bunch of industry users. I see ads for Haskell jobs pretty often, anyway, while I'm not sure I've ever seen a Clojure job ad outside of HN threads.

All I know is that there is definitely enough demand for Clojure work that I didn't have to search for any leads when I left my last job; I already had four promising prospects to choose from that either emailed me directly or messaged me on Linkedin within the previous month.
