(I-Newswire) September 11, 2009 - Hong Kong, 10 September 2009 – Career Times, a leader in recruitment advertising, today announced that nearly 70 per cent of people surveyed say extra vigilance increases their stress levels. The survey, conducted online by Career Times’ in-house IT department from 25 June 2009 to 20 July 2009, involved 928 CareerTimes.com.hk members.
