The unemployment numbers may be starting to slowly decline, but there is still the unfortunate reality that hundreds of thousands of people are still on the job hunt and struggling to find employment. For those people who have been on the hunt for months, possibly longer, it remains a constant struggle to keep spirits up. Luckily for some companies in the St. Louis region, growth continues to be on the horizon as are more job opportunities for local professionals seeking employment.

“At the end of 2012, St. Louis city hit a five-year vacancy low [just above 16%]. We were very excited to have the chance to do our part and fill a new office space downtown. As business owners, my partners and I want nothing more than to see our downtown market flourish. The fact that we are in a position to offer opportunities to job-seeking professionals in St. Louis is extremely rewarding,” said Scott Scully, President at Abstrakt Marketing Group.

With a strong emphasis on retention and expansion, Abstrakt Marketing Group, a marketing agency in downtown St. Louis, continues to offer jobs to professionals in the region, just as they had in 2012. The company finished 2012 with 15 new hires between the months of November and December. 2013 looks to be a promising year for both the company and local job seekers as Abstrakt projects to hire a minimum of 45 employees.

The company will be updating their website throughout the year to keep job seekers informed on the most recent opportunities. Currently they are hiring for Business Growth Managers and Executive Sales; the full scope of the position can be found at www.abstraktmg.com/contact/careers.
