Hiring Outlook 2008
By JOHN ROSSHEIM, Monster Senior Contributing Writer
You want a New Year's prediction for the US labor market? Here you go: 2008 will be the year of the quant.
By quant, we mean not just quantitative analysts, those brainiacs of finance who drive many a hedge fund's oversized returns -- and occasionally help set off market crises like the recent mortgage-backed securities meltdown.

Read on to see how your corner of the economy will fare in the new year.
