A Gen Xer quit his remote job of 20 years after his company ordered him back to the office. He said it's been difficult finding a new remote job even with decades of experience. Remote jobs on ZipRecruiter's platform, which are also narrowing, get nearly three times the number of applicants as in-person roles. He suspected that even though remote work was effective for him, his company wouldn't be making many exceptions. "But I'm just having more trouble than I thought finding a remote job, but I keep trying."

That's more than twice as frenzied as the rush for remote jobs at the beginning of last year. And third, there's been a dramatic slowdown in tech, the industry that supercharged the boom in remote work. The few remaining employers that continue to offer remote jobs have been overwhelmed by the surge of interest. AdvertisementAdvertisementWith so few openings, candidates for remote jobs are being forced to hustle like never before. The dream of remote work, it appears, will soon be more remote than ever.

On Wednesday, the Federal Open Market Committee will announce whether it will raise interest rates again or implement a pause. AdvertisementAdvertisementHatzius also said at the NYU forum that "we've seen a very substantial rebalancing of the labor market." "We have seen clear evidence that inflation is moving down to the Fed's target, or strongly in the direction of the Fed's target, without a substantial deterioration in the real economy," Hatzius said. "We're entering a period where consumers are returning to an environment where they're much more dependent on the path of the labor market, on the flow of income creation," Meyer said. Goldman Sachs predicted those events could stunt economic growth — and complicate the Fed's job in the months to come.

Government shutdown would leave the Fed flying blind
  + stars: | 2023-09-18 | by ( Bryan Mena | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +4 min
Washington, DC CNN —In the event of a US government shutdown, the Bureau of Labor Statistics says it will stop releasing data, including key figures on inflation and unemployment. A lack of crucial government data would make it difficult for investors and the Federal Reserve to interpret the US economy. “By the time the Fed discovered its mistake, the effects of excessive monetary tightening could be difficult to reverse,” she said. It’s unclear whether the Fed would hold rates steady in the absence of government data or how it would navigate a government shutdown when deliberating monetary policy. The effects of a government shutdown also depend on how long it lasts, which also isn’t clear at this point.

Wholesale Inflation Spikes in August on Energy Prices
  + stars: | 2023-09-14 | by ( Tim Smart | Sept. | At A.M. | ) www.usnews.com   time to read: +2 min
Wholesale inflation surged 0.7% in August, largely due to a spike in energy costs, the Labor Department reported on Thursday. The producer price index, a measure of what businesses pay for their supplies, rose 1.6% for the year. The core PPI, excluding energy and food costs, rose 0.3% for the month and 3% for the year, above estimates for increases of 0.2% and 2.2%. The overall August increase is the largest since a 0.9% increase in June of 2022, when inflation began rising sharply, and was fueled heavily by a 10.5% increase in energy prices. On Wednesday, the government said the consumer price index rose 0.6% in August and 3.7% for the year.

What the August jobs report means for the Fed

Washington, DC CNN —The long-robust US job market is continuing to cool, according to several economic indicators released this week. It’s clear the labor market has cooledThere are plenty of signs that the job market has continued to weaken and that momentum is largely expected to continue in the months ahead. The August jobs report showed that average hourly earnings grew at a monthly pace of just 0.2%, or 4.3% annually. “Pretty much everything in the labor market has cooled back to the pre-pandemic temperature,” Julia Pollak, chief economist at ZipRecruiter, told CNN. It’s also possible the job market holds steady if recession fears continue to fade, allowing businesses to address stubborn staffing shortages.

Truck transportation also saw employment fall by 36,700.Leisure and hospitality saw a job gain of 40,000 from July to August. From wage growth to an increase in labor force participation, various data points suggest the US labor market is still strong. There were 8.8 million job openings in July after 9.2 million in June, according to new Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey or JOLTS data released by BLS earlier this week. "We expect this labor market rebalancing to continue," Powell said. "Evidence that the tightness in the labor market is no longer easing could also call for a monetary policy response."

Experts say a reassignment is often a good sign and may mean a company wants to keep you. Challenger told Insider that over the past few years, companies focused on reassigning workers internally because it was hard to find replacements amid the labor shortage. AdvertisementAdvertisement"It's usually a company saying, 'Hey, we don't have this role anymore, but we want to keep you,'" Challenger told Insider. "Just the act of reassignment does not signal that a company wants you gone," Julia Pollak, the chief economist at ZipRecruiter, told Insider. Yolanda M. Owens, a career coach who works with platforms like the Muse, told Insider by email that companies can also use reassignments to keep the power dynamics in their favor.

Job growth is slowingThe U.S. economy added 187,000 jobs in August, the Labor Department said Friday. Job growth is clearly losing momentum: The three-month average in August was 150,000 jobs added, versus 201,000 in June, for example, Bunker said. Further, monthly job growth still exceeds U.S. population growth, economists said. Unemployment is up — but not for bad reasonsThe unemployment rate jumped to 3.8% in August from 3.5% in July, the U.S. Labor Department said Friday. There were about 8.8 million openings in July, the fewest since March 2021, according to Labor Department data.

Minneapolis CNN —Last month, the Bureau of Labor Statistics delivered a jobs report that only Baby Bear could offer: not too hot, not too cold, but just right. While that figure was well below the breakneck pace of job growth over the past three years, it was roughly in line with the monthly average seen in the decade before the pandemic. The August jobs report, set to be released on Friday at 8:30 a.m. ET, is expected to show that the labor market will stay in this sweet spot. The Fed has been wanting to see more slack in the labor market in its battle to bring down inflation.

Here are the 10 worst states for high-paying entry-level jobs according to their findings , including the percent of entry-level jobs that offered pay higher than the state's median salary and the median salary according to BLS. When it comes to entry-level jobs, some industries notoriously pay better than others. Hawaii, the worst state for high-paying entry-level jobs, lost 15,000 residents between April 2020 and July 2022, according to the Hawaii Census. If there are fewer jobs available overall, there are, of course, fewer high-paying entry-level jobs available as well. That, too, would hamper the availability of high-paying entry-level jobs.

In addition, a smaller number of workers quit their jobs, businesses hired fewer workers and layoffs nudged higher as the US job market settles into a calmer, more balanced state. Job openings fell to a seasonally adjusted 8.827 million in July, from 9.165 million in June, according to the BLS’ Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey report. It’s the lowest number of total openings since March 2021, and there are now 1.5 available jobs for every unemployed person. The July JOLTS data showed that the number of new hires dropped to 5.773 million from 5.94 million, quits landed near pre-pandemic totals by falling to 3.549 million from 3.802 million, and layoffs inched up to 1.555 million from 1.551 million. That’s good news for the Federal Reserve, which has been hoping for more slack in the labor market in its battle to bring down inflation.

Here are the top 10 states for high-paying entry-level positions according to Resume.io, including the state's median salary according to BLS and the percent of entry-level jobs paying above it. They then ranked the states in terms of the percentage of entry-level jobs that paid above the median salary. Entry-level jobs are often the lowest-paid on the totem pole, but a variety of factors influence what salary new employees are making. "They're very closely in line with the macroeconomic indicators on overall state labor market conditions," she says. "I think your entry-level jobs are kind of the bleeding edge of the labor market," she says, "and small changes in labor market conditions translate into large changes in conditions for entry-level workers."

Google and Microsoft are currently testing out their own generative AI tools as well. History could help predict how generative AI "might actually influence or change work in the future," says Benanav. Tech could 'turn good jobs into bad jobs'Generative AI could change the nature and parameters of certain jobs. Introducing new tech into the process has been a way "to turn good jobs into bad jobs," he says. A recent analysis by Goldman Sachs found that, globally, 300 million jobs could be lost to generative AI.

During the heyday of the "great resignation," workers could expect to see a 20% pay bump from changing jobs. Now, as the job market cools and companies become more cautious with hiring, the big signing bonuses and high salaries new hires once enjoyed are dwindling. Nearly half of the 2,000 employers surveyed by ZipRecruiter in July said they had reduced pay for recent job openings. As businesses cut new hires' salaries, however, jobseekers' wage expectations have hit record highs, according to a Federal Reserve Bank of New York survey released Monday. I've just accepted that I might have less negotiating power than I did two years ago."

The higher wage expectations are a reflection of this current moment in the economy and the labor market, said Julia Pollak, chief economist for online job marketplace ZipRecruiter. “It largely explains what we’ve been seeing during this summer of strikes and unions pushing for higher wages; and, of course, wages follow inflation, and part of the reason that workers are expecting higher wages is because prices have risen 17.5% since the pandemic,” she said. Men and college grads demand moreWhile reservation wages rose for workers across the board, some groups’ demands are significantly higher than others: For college graduates and men, the wage floors were $98,644 and $91,048, respectively. Women’s reservation wages set a record as well, but at $66,068 — $12,500 below the average and nearly $25,000 below men’s expectations. “Especially in male-dominated industries, women may just not know what the going rate is and underestimate,” Pollak said.

AI continues to make headlines as companies and individuals alike try to harness the power of new tools like ChatGPT to become more efficient at work and in life. "There's incredible demand for people who are creative, who are entrepreneurial, who quickly adopt new technologies and figure out how to leverage them," says Julia Pollak, chief economist at ZipRecruiter. "Toward the end of last year, we started noticing spikes in searches around all types of AI-related needs," says Yoav Hornung, head of verticals at Fiverr. These included technical needs around integrating it, but also included consulting, "a lot around AI video editing and prompt engineers," he says.

Looking for a new job can take a lot of time, especially if you're already working another job while you search. It doesn't have to take a ton of time, either, says Marissa Morrison, vice president of people at the job search site ZipRecruiter. Like many hiring experts, she sees the value in leveraging artificial intelligence tools like ChatGPT to get this done, too. For example, you might write a prompt in ChatGPT to "write resume bullet points for [insert job title here] and include metric-based achievements."

Applying to a new job can feel like a full-time job itself, so it's important to be strategic about how you pace your search. According to ZipRecruiter's database, which includes 10 million active listings, Tuesday is the best day of the week to apply to a job, when some 22% of new jobs are added to the site. Meanwhile, "Sundays are not the best day to apply for jobs," she says. "You may be missing the opportunity to be among one of the first to apply for the freshest jobs." It's also a good reminder to take breaks during your job search so you don't get burned out: "Let yourself have days where you don't apply for jobs so that you can have that balance in your job search," Morrison says.

But aside from simply skirting a recession, it’s not obvious what the economy would look like in a soft landing. And who even declares that the Fed has officially defied the odds and achieved a soft landing? The main aspect of a soft landing, according to economists, is the absence of a recession, which is determined by the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER.) In a soft landing, the job market has to remain intact. The other key feature of a soft landing is for the Fed to successfully control inflation, but that’s open to some interpretation.
