NEW YORK - MORE than half of executive-level job seekers think the recession has been good for their children, as a lesson that opportunity will not be handed to them, according to a new survey.
Most of those surveyed said the economic crisis had a positive effect on personal relationships, with a third saying family and friends have grown closer and a third saying they have done more networking and made new friends, said the research by TheLadders.com, an online jobs site that lists positions paying US$100,000 (S$146,000) or more a year.
