Chart offers great perspective

US hiring activity

This chart presents a very interesting view of what’s happening in the labor market. The surprising item is the number of hires compared to the number of separations.

There is still plenty of hiring going on!

So often you here people get discouraged today and say things like, “Nobody is hiring,” or “There are no jobs available out there!”

But this layout suggests that the scene isn’t as bleak as many frustrated job seekers might think.

Sure, it’s still tough out there, but the data laid out here gives some encouragement to persevere in the job search!
