Some agencies also search out individuals meeting specific requirements beyond those who are already known to the agency; these are usually called recruiters or, especially if the position is permanent and involves substantial professional or management responsibility, headhunters.

In some ways, employment rates--the share of the population employed--are more revealing than unemployment rates, because the former also capture how a tight labor market draws in people who were formerly not even looking for work (and thus not counted among the unemployed).
The most important result of all this labor-market tightening is that these employment gains translated into higher wages and incomes for broad groups of working-class families who had seen their incomes stagnate over the previous few decades.

 ILO - China: Prospects for full employment - Thomas G. Rawski
During the 1980s, formal employment absorbed half of the labour force increment, with new positions in TVE firms and in urban formal employment each equivalent to roughly one-fourth of the labour force increment.
The biggest contributions on both sides of the ledger: steep employment growth in township-village (TVE) enterprises, large contributions of private enterprise to incremental employment, flight from farming, and, most recently, mass urban layoffs, are unanticipated consequences of reforms that did not target employment or labour markets.
The figures show that new formal employment in officially-registered domestic private enterprises (including "individual" enterprises with fewer than eight employees and "private" firms with eight or more workers) accounted for 37.6 per cent of incremental formal employment at the national level during the years 1990-97.
