Silicon Valley job growth has reached dot-com boom levels, report says

MOUNTAIN VIEW — Silicon Valley’s job growth has returned to dot-com boom levels and San Francisco has emerged as a major new tech hub. But good times have not returned for all area residents and ethnic groups.
Those are among the findings released Tuesday from the 2013 Silicon Valley Index, a closely watched annual study produced by San Jose-based Joint Venture Silicon Valley and the Mountain View-based Silicon Valley Community Foundation.
“Employment growth in Silicon Valley is impressive, very impressive,” said Russell Hancock, president of Joint Venture Silicon Valley. “Some might even say the job growth is cause for euphoria.”
