AGP Executive Report
Last update: 2 hours agoJob Search: Finding work is taking longer as employers keep layoffs low but hesitate to hire. September added just 29,000 jobs, and revised estimates erased 822,000 previously reported gains since January 2025—downward revisions, not jobs people had already lost. Hiring Outlook: Jobless claims stayed below 200,000 for a fourth straight week, but that offers little comfort to job seekers in a low-hire, low-fire market. New Jobs: Walmart is still hiring for its Stockton fulfillment center, which expects to employ more than 1,000 people when fully staffed. Nucor plans to add up to 100 jobs at its Indiana expansion, with hiring expected to begin in 2027. Skilled Trades: A new workforce report projects 1.7 million trade-job openings a year through 2035, underscoring the need to bring more workers into training and apprenticeship pathways.
