I have been talking with Staffing Leaders in other staffing sectors across the U.S. What we are experiencing is atypical in an election year. The last line in the March JOLTS report says it all - "As the Federal Reserve contemplates how long to keep interest rates elevated, they need to weigh how long the demand for workers can decline before joblessness rises." https://lnkd.in/dDc8U5Ww

Initial jobless claims dropped by 20K for the week ending September 16 according to the U.S. Department of Labor. "Applications for US unemployment benefits fell to the lowest level since January last week, indicating a healthy labor market that continues to support the economy." This means the labor market remains difficult for you and your hiring. But what if you had access to thousands of pre-screened candidates to interview and hire, and can take advantage of funded programs to lower your hiring and training costs?

News related to the U.S. labor market. New jobless claims have reached a three-week low, dropping to 230,000, according to a recent report by the U.S. Department of Labor. This decline in first-time applications for unemployment benefits is a promising sign, indicating that there is still no sign of rising layoffs. The figure represents a decrease of 10,000 claims from the previous week, underscoring the continued resilience of the U.S. labor market. This positive trend suggests that the demand for workers remains healthy, showcasing the strength of the American economy, even amid inflation and recessionary fears. As businesses navigate the ongoing challenges, it is encouraging to see these promising indicators. It highlights the efforts made by companies to retain their workforce and adapt to the changing landscape. It also should serve as a reminder that firms must continue to invest in talent attraction strategies including building their employment brands, creating positive candidate experiences, and leveraging technology to improve recruiting efficiency. #JoblessClaims #LaborMarket #EconomicRecovery Read more: https://lnkd.in/dj25jn87

Engaging, self-reflective leader and change champion. Empowering recruiters and enabling the organization to attract and retain top talent through a tech forward, people centric approach.
Balanced overview of the current state of the labor market. Although we have seen some cooling, the market remains tight in areas with labor shortages. Competition for highly specialized talent has driven salary up in these key roles. Job postings are down but still above pre-pandemic levels. Decrease in postings is driven mainly by reduced attrition and companies electing to not backfill roles. https://lnkd.in/gqmWJGdN

On Friday, the U.S. Department of Labor released its monthly employment report for May, and the headline numbers seemed impressive — 272,000 jobs added. But while CNN celebrated a “blockbuster report” that “far outpaced economists’ expectations for 180,000 jobs and an unemployment rate of 3.9%,” a deeper dive into the data reveals a much darker picture. First, nearly one-sixth of the hiring came from the government sector, with 43,000 jobs added last month, which is consistent with the average monthly job gains of 52,000 in the government sector over the previous 12 months.
