JobStreet.com Employee Confidence Index (JobStreet ECI)
The JobStreet ECI is a measure of a jobseeker's confidence in finding a job. It ranges from zero (very poor) to 100 (very good). A low index shows a tough job market where many people find it difficult to get a job. A high index shows a comfortable job market where many people are able to secure a good job.
The index fluctuates with time and its trend is an important indication of the production and economic development of the nation. The sampling size for each month's index averages 3,000 respondents.
