For many people, finding a new job and furthering their career is a top New Year's resolution.

The job market in America took a huge hit in 2020 as a result of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. The unemployment rate reached 14.7% at one point, but has since been steadily recovering.

So how hard it is to land a job in Salt Lake City?

According to a study conducted by Wallethub, Salt Lake City is the fourth-easiest city to find a job in. The city is first in the nation for "job market" and has the second most job opportunities.

Here are the top ten cities to find a job in, according to the study:

1. South Burlington, VT
2. Columbia, MD
3. Virginia Beach, VA
4. Salt Lake City, UT
5. Boise, ID
6. Scottsdale, AV
7. Chesapeake, VA
8. Seattle, WA

To determine the list, Wallethub compared 182 cities, including the 150 most populated cities in the United States, across two key dimensions- job market and socio-economics. Those two dimensions were then evaluated using 32 relevant metrics such as transit score, job opportunities, job satisfaction, and annual transportation costs.
