Sandra Williams+FollowJob Growth Slows Down—Here’s What’s UpDecember’s jobs report is out and it’s a bit of a letdown: only 50,000 nonfarm jobs added, way less than what experts hoped for. The restaurant and bar scene did most of the heavy lifting, while the government barely made a dent. Unemployment barely budged, and average work hours actually dipped. Wages are creeping up, but overall, job growth is way slower than last year. Anyone else feeling the slowdown? #JobCareer #Job #JobsReport10Share
james73+FollowMeta’s nuclear move could reshape Ohio jobsMeta is teaming up with Oklo to build a massive nuclear power plant in Pike County, aiming to power the state’s booming data centers and promising thousands of new jobs. This billion-dollar project is set to break ground this year and could be running by 2030, bringing both construction and long-term operational roles. While the promise of clean energy and fresh tax revenue is big news for Ohio, some locals are wary, given ongoing lawsuits tied to a former nuclear site nearby. How do you feel about nuclear energy fueling our tech future—and our local economy? #JobCareer #OhioJobs #NuclearEnergy00Share

james73+FollowUnemployment Drops, But Job Gains Miss MarkJob report just dropped: The U.S. added 50,000 jobs in December—less than expected, but the unemployment rate actually fell to 4.4%. November and October numbers got revised, too (not in a good way). Wall Street barely blinked, and the Fed is likely holding steady on rates for now. After months of shutdown chaos, it’s finally back to business as usual for these stats. Anyone else watching for a March rate cut? #JobCareer #JobsReport #Unemployment00Share
Gloria Fowler+FollowJob Market Hits the Brakes—What’s Next?The US just added 50,000 jobs in December, capping off the slowest year for job growth since 2003 (outside of recessions). Most new gigs came from health care and hospitality, while other industries basically froze hiring. Even though unemployment dipped a bit, more people are stuck jobless for longer. Wages are up slightly, but with AI and tariffs shaking things up, the job market feels pretty icy. Anyone else feeling the chill? #JobCareer #Job #JobMarket00Share
rprice+FollowJob Market’s on Snooze Mode RNMilken Institute’s chief economist says hiring in the US is crawling right now—like, don’t expect a job boom anytime soon. With the final jobs report of 2025 dropping soon, it’s looking like job seekers might need extra patience (and maybe a side hustle). Anyone else feeling the job search struggle? #JobCareer #Job #JobMarket00Share
Russell Cooke+FollowJob Openings Hit 5-Year Low—What’s Next?The job market’s wild ride is slowing down: job openings just dropped to their second-lowest point in five years, and hiring is losing steam. Remember when it felt like everyone was job-hopping for better pay? Not anymore. Now, there are fewer jobs for every unemployed person, and companies are way pickier. Some sectors (like shipping and government) are especially feeling the pinch, while retail and construction are still hiring. Is this just a breather, or are we heading for something rougher? #JobCareer #JobMarket #HiringTrends00Share
Sean Martinez+FollowUSPS job fair could change your 2024Birmingham folks looking for a steady gig with good pay—USPS is hosting a job fair this Friday at Meadow Brook Post Office, and it’s all walk-in, no appointment needed. Starting pay is nearly $22 an hour, and these rural carrier roles can be a real foot in the door for a long-term career. You’ll need to be 18+, have a clean record, and be ready to work outdoors (and maybe use your own car). If you or someone you know is job hunting, this could be a solid opportunity.

james73+FollowJob Market’s Yellow Lights FlashingDecember’s jobs report is giving mixed vibes: only 50K new jobs (way below expectations), but unemployment dipped to 4.4%. Layoffs are at a 17-month low, but hiring is super slow and revisions show the market’s weaker than we thought. Some industries are still adding jobs, but manufacturing and government took big hits. No recession alarms yet, but definitely not a party for job seekers. Wage growth is steady, though! #JobCareer #JobsReport #Unemployment10Share
