I’m going to start out today on a somewhat somber note regarding the current state of the Architectural job market in LA. Everyone knows what a hole the Architectural profession has been in over the last several years. Looking back to October of 2009, there were only 12 architectural positions, of any type, listed on the various AIA websites in the state. More recently, conditions seemed to be improving with 19 positions listed on the AIALA.org site in July, 28 positions in August, but then a drop to 6 in September and now only 4 by the middle of October. Could it be seasonal adjustments...possibly, but there seems to be a drop-off in job websites across the board, especially for senior level staff.
With that off my chest, let’s see some of what’s coming up architecturally in LA for the next 30 days!
