INTERN EMPLOYMENT UP, SAYS AIA, NCARB SURVEY

摘要

The latest glimmer of post-recessionary good news for the profession comes in a new career survey of interns, jointly released by the AIA and the National Council of Architectural Registration Boards (NCARB). Seventy-eight percent of respondents to the online survey, conducted in 2012, reported that they were employed in professional architecture work, up 8 percent from the last time the survey was conducted in 2010. Six percent of respondents stated that they were unemployed, down 11 percent from two years before. And among respondents who were laid off from a position, 68 percent indicated that they were likely to stay in the profession, a slight uptick from the 64 percent who said that they would in the previous survey.
