job market

SOP. Per utramque cavernam 12:11, 21 October 2018 (UTC)

Nah - I just think the definition's lame. --XY3999 (talk) 21:28, 21 October 2018 (UTC)

How would an improved definition make this any less SOP? We do have labor market, though, and I think job market is basically a synonym.  --Lambiam 05:22, 22 October 2018 (UTC)

Keep, absolutely not SOP based on our current definitions for market, for labour or jobs are not commodities, goods or effects. The use of market for job markets and labour markets of course relates to their undergoing of market mechanisms such as supply and demand. Job market seems less SOP than labour market in this respect, because although employees sell their labour to employers, employers do not sell their jobs to employees (nor buy them from) in the same sense (in a different sense, that would be soliciting bribes). ←₰-→ Lingo ^Bingo _Dingo (talk) 09:29, 12 November 2018 (UTC)

Keep per WT:LEMMING, e.g. M-W and Collins. --Dan Polansky (talk) 11:12, 15 December 2018 (UTC)
