If you're a discouraged job seeker, please don't take it personally when you read about lots of jobs being added to the economy and you're still not getting hired. For anyone who follows the job market reports, today's was a surprise. Despite economists' predictions of a decline, 272,000 jobs were added in various industries, including healthcare, government, leisure and hospitality, and professional services. At first glance, this appears to be good news, but what does it mean if you're job hunting or thinking about a change? Perhaps not much, depending on the industry and the career field you're interested in. ☑ Even though jobs were added in May, there was a 1.8 million year-over-year decline in job openings between April 2023 and April 2024. ☑ There appears to be a mismatch between the industries that are laying off workers and the industries that are hiring. Over 90,000 tech workers lost their jobs to layoffs in 2024 according to layoffs.fyi, but the industries hiring the most include healthcare, retail trade, and government. ☑ Compensation is also an issue. Vanguard reports that hiring for middle—and high-income workers has slowed while hiring for lower-paid workers continues to rise. ✅ The Job Hopper News explains what the surprisingly good job reports means to you. https://lnkd.in/eVmUwZX5 #jobsreport #jobs #jobsearch

These are some great data insights around the current job market as we close in on 2024. It's key to understand what industries have grown or slowed down. For recruitment professionals seeking diverse talent, layoffs at companies in the "slow down" sector could be great for sourcing. For anyone seeking a new opportunity, take a look at some of the companies within the "growth" sector. Aaron Terrazas writes "Growth in sectors that drove pandemic-era job gains like professional & business services, transportation & warehousing and information has slowed to below pre-pandemic levels. However, healthcare, education and government have picked up the slack, driving much of recent job gains at paces well above 2019 averages." #talentacquisition #recruitment #dataanalysis #searchsmarternotharder https://lnkd.in/gdgyQFRc

The July Jobs Report is Here! July's jobs report shows U.S. businesses added only 114,000 new jobs, far below the projected 175,000, with unemployment rising to 4.3%. Only a few sectors, like healthcare and construction, are showing significant gains. Wage growth has slowed to 3.6%, the lowest since 2021. Why Are Employers Still Struggling to Find Talent? Despite the slowdown in job growth, many business leaders are still struggling to find the right people. One key reason is that there are still more open jobs than available workers. Additionally, the available candidates may not possess the specific skills or experience needed for your unique needs. Contact us to find the talent that meets your specific requirements, not just those who are actively job-seeking. https://ow.ly/3oHO50SShzL #Unemployment #JulyJobsReport #WageGrowth #JobMarket #HiringChallenges
