The national economy has finally gained back all jobs lost during recession, 79 months after the recession began. Not only are we back to the pre-recession employment peak—we’re 98,000 jobs above it.
The 217,000 new jobs created in May represent the fourth consecutive month of more than 200,000 payroll additions, the first time that this has happened during the recovery of late. Unemployment held steady at 6.3 percent, as did the labor force participation rate at its low of 62.8 percent.
See details on the data, including demographic, geographic and industry breakdowns, in this report featuring research from the Bureau of Labor Statistics and JLL.
U.S. employment update and outlook: October 2014JLL
Unemployment dips to 5.9 percent in September—its first time below 6.0 percent during the recovery.
The U.S. economy got back on track in September, bouncing back from a sluggish August with 248,000 net new jobs. Growth occurred across sectors and geographies, with office-using industries in particular benefiting from improved corporate confidence leading to permanent hiring.
Total unemployment, which includes discouraged and marginally detached workers, also declined slightly to 11.8 percent, bringing it below the 10-year average.
With numerous other employment metrics all pointing up—including job openings, voluntary quits and CEO confidence—sentiment will only become more optimistic over the coming months.

U.S. employment update and outlook: December 2014JLL
November gain of 321,000 jobs confirms the strength of the recovery
The U.S. economy saw the growth of an additional 321,000 net new jobs in November. With revisions of earlier months' data, makes November the ninth consecutive month with gains surpassing 200,000 jobs.
Unemployment remained steady from the previous month at 5.8 percent. Total unemployment—which includes detached workers—dropped by 10 basis points to a recovery low of 11.4 percent, as the number of marginally detached workers slowly declines.
See more economic, office and real estate research at http://bit.ly/1s2tk4M
The unemployment rate dropped yet again in June, to 6.1 percent. However, total unemployment, which dropped only 10 basis points in June to 12.1 percent, is still double that official rate.
Total non-farm employment increased by 288,000 jobs, making June the fifth consecutive month of growth over 200,000 net new jobs. And, this growth was diverse, with the top three industry markets contributing only one-half of new jobs, and all but two subsectors showing net growth.

The U.S. economy saw the addition of 214,000 net new jobs in October. With revisions of earlier months’ data, this makes October the eighth consecutive month with gains surpassing 200,000 jobs.
This steady expansion has helped to push down unemployment, which fell by 10 basis points to 5.8 percent. Total unemployment—which includes detached workers—dropped by 30 basis points to a recovery low of 11.5 percent, also below the long-term average.

October 2017 U.S. employment update and outlookJLL
After more than 80 consecutive months of growth, the U.S. labor market saw its first contraction, losing 33,000 jobs in net terms, largely a result of Hurricanes Harvey and Irma. The overwhelming majority of losses were concentrated in the leisure and hospitality sector, particularly in Florida (Puerto Rico is not counted in monthly figures), further exacerbating this contraction.
The 313,000 net new jobs created in February represented the highest monthly level of job creation since mid-2016.
Growth was found throughout the labor market, with goods-producing sectors such as construction, retail and manufacturing in particular holding firm and, in the case of retail trade, rebounding after months of losses.
Gains were also possible as a result of a sharp increase in labor-force expansion, which boosted labor force participation and kept unemployment at 4.1 percent rather than declining further.

U.S. employment rate data and trends: August 2014 JLL
After months of job creation greater than 200,000, August posted the slowest addition in eight months as sectors across the board registered a summer slowdown of sorts.
This may look discouraging, but improved consumer confidence, job openings that match pre-recession peaks, slowly-but-surely growing quits and a host of other indicators are all pointing in an upward direction—signaling that this is likely an aberration rather than a new normal.

With 164,000 net new jobs, employment growth in April 2018 maintained the year's solid pace. Growth was spread across industries, although professional services emerged as a clear leader during the month, accounting for roughly one-third of all gains.
A slight drop to the civilian labor force spread to both employment and unemployment figures, driving down unemployment to a new low of 3.9 percent.

Do you know what benefit Millennial employees want 3 TIMES MORE than cash bonuses?
Millennials, or the Gen Y workforce born between 1982 and 2002, are success-oriented but can be very high maintenance. They don’t adapt to corporate cultures. Your company must be “Millennial-friendly” or risk a high turnover rate with this not-so-tolerant generation.
With mass Boomer retirement starting, and the smaller number of Gen X workers replacing them, smart employers are currently scrambling to determine not only how to recruit their next generation of young employees, but how to retain the Millennials they have now.
Join us as Lisa Orrell, author of 2 best-selling books, Millennials Incorporated and Millennials into Leadership, explains the eight critical retention requirements Millennials seek from an employer. Lisa’s insight is backed by recent research into the Millennial generation and her years of experience working with multi-generations in organizations large and small.
In this presentation you will learn:
What makes the Millennial worker tick?
Where do you find and recruit this next generation worker?
How can you motivate, inspire and retain your Millennial workers?
Learn how your company can keep its best & brightest future leaders.

Career Sites, Recruiting Strategy & The Candidate ExperienceMonster
A significant component of a company’s recruitment strategy is a corporate website. This website showcases your company, your culture and your recruitment brand. Great Candidates who are carefully managing their careers are visiting your website and making assumptions about your organization based on what they find. Unfortunately, many websites are not designed with the Candidate experience in mind and fail to engage the right talent.
This presentation illustrates how leading edge organizations are developing sites that are intuitive, experiential and most importantly help filter the right Candidates in and the wrong Candidates out.

About the Monster Employment Index
Launched in April 2004 with data collected since October 2003, the Monster Employment Index is a broad
