The US job market is undergoing a major transformation in 2024. More and more workers are dissatisfied and demotivated by their current jobs, and are seeking new opportunities and challenges. In fact, 71% of them are planning to leave their jobs, and 57% are hoping for a higher salary. How can you prepare for this shift and make the most of it? Our new report on the salary and hiring trends in the US will tell you everything you need to know. Ask me for a copy before general release.

It looks like we are heading to a “normal jobs market,” or as normal as we can get. With job openings falling to a three-year low, showing the available positions dropping from 8.36 million in March to 8.36 million in April, according to the Labor Department’s Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey, moving a key ratio to a three-year low of one job opening for every two workers. #workforce #labor #ndol #jolts #labor

Data for February 2024 suggests that the job market is still very active although the signs are that the post-lockdown hike in people changing jobs has peaked. Salary increases also appear to be less forthcoming as employers try to cope with increased operating costs. London and the South East continue to dominate the statistics with the most job vacancies posted – just over half of the total for the UK. Engineering vacancies just pipped financial services to the top spot across all regions. There also appears to be a trend for requests for flexible working to be denied in the public sector. Whilst numbers are falling there are still more job vacancies than candidates especially in our traditional markets in the Midlands and the North.

Despite slower job growth in October, there's hope for job seekers and businesses alike. With unemployment increasing only slightly to 3.9%, there are over 3 million more jobs than job seekers - a great sign for recruitment and retention. While only 150,000 new jobs were added last month, small and mid-size businesses still have a chance to rebound in the new year if they utilize the right strategies.

It's not your imagination; employers are having difficulty hiring quickly, with the average time-to-hire now at 44 days. One contributing factor is the low unemployment rate, which allows job seekers to be more selective. #Jobs #LaborMarket #TalentAquisition #Hiring https://lnkd.in/guQNfa6E
