New York, Washington, D.C. and other major metros may be some of the most sought-after job markets for young professionals, but for ample opportunities and high-paying roles, they may have better luck in the Sun Belt. The metro areas around Tucson, Arizona; Tallahassee, Florida; and Gainesville, Florida; are the fastest-growing job markets for entry-level roles, according to new data from LinkedIn. The top industries hiring entry-level workers are secure fields like manufacturing, government, education and health care. 1 priority is finding a job with stability. The professional services sector has seen more layoffs in recent years, Kantenga says, but common jobs in consulting and legal services also pay "extremely well," which may be a worthwhile tradeoff for young people.

And high interest rates, necessitated by all that inflation, stifle investment in productivity and further distort the economy," Kolyandr said.

A lot of parents think they don't need to talk to their kids about porn, but as an adult filmmaker, I never had that option. Talking to children about porn isn't just important for parents in the adult entertainment industry, though. We can't assume our kids have not seen porn. That's why I created the nonprofit The Porn Conversation to give families tools to help them talk with kids about porn literacy. Pointing out the things we see and questioning them helps children build the skills they'll need to understand porn.

Traditional agencies that work with top Hollywood talent — like blue-chip firms CAA, UTA, and WME — have started representing YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok stars, working with popular creators from Addison Rae to Emma Chamberlain.

You don't need to hate your job to experience burnout. For her new book, "Burnout Immunity," Wiens interviewed hundreds of people working in high-stress environments, including hospital employees, police chiefs and financial executives. She found that the people at the highest risk of burnout aren't just those with demanding jobs — they genuinely love their work and routinely go the extra mile. While identifying yourself through your work isn't necessarily bad, it makes you vulnerable to burnout if you make too many personal sacrifices and lose sight of your own self-care. Much of the same vulnerability to burnout exists in people who are passionate about their work and prioritize their employer's needs and goals over their own, Wiens notes.

Often referred to as the “city of dreams,” Mumbai draws migrants from across the country hoping to find wealth and success. Noemi Cassanelli/CNNThe Covid-19 pandemic only underscored the volatility of migrant workers’ circumstances when millions lost their jobs almost overnight and were forced to go home. The biggest group is in the United Arab Emirates, with 3.4 million NRIs, followed by 2.5 million in Saudi Arabia; next is the United States with 1.2 million. The massive group of disenfranchised migrant workers stands in sharp contrast to these achievements – with no solution in sight. That means for now, voting remains an unlikely reality for many migrant workers.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman says AI's impact on the economy should be a top of mind concern. Research suggests AI has the potential to affect millions of jobs and lead to lower wages. But when OpenAI CEO Sam Altman was asked for his thoughts on how the spread of AI-generated misinformation may affect elections, the tech leader appeared to be more concerned about another issue: AI's impact on the economy. An International Monetary Fund study from earlier this year found that AI may impact roughly 60% of jobs in "advanced economies." But Altman said he is still worried about AI's potential on the labor market.

In 2022, at the height of the "great resignation," a record 4.5 million workers each month — about 3% of the U.S. workforce — were quitting their jobs. While some economists have said this pandemic-era trend is over, new research from Microsoft and LinkedIn forecasts that even more people plan to leave their jobs in 2024. And Americans' confidence in their job-hunting prospects has reached its highest point in two years, a February 2024 ZipRecruiter survey of more than 2,000 jobseekers shows. Despite high-profile job cuts at a few large companies, layoff rates, much like unemployment, are lower than before the Covid-19 pandemic. Americans are more confident about their career prospects — but dissatisfaction with continuing high inflation and their current roles could equally be driving them to seek new opportunities.
