Jobs Are Out There But Hiring Data Remains Muddy: Business Casual

 

The Trump Administration and ADP (Automatic Data Processing Inc.) have varying figures on the Summer’s hiring data, but one thing is for certain: hiring slowed in July, reported the Washington Post. The slowdown coincides with the coronavirus re-gaining momentum, and the disappointing numbers also come at a pivotal moment as Congress deliberates over a new relief package for unemployed Americans and struggling businesses.

Though hiring numbers are sluggish, hiring is still happening, particularly in service, retail, and back-end corporate positions. Business Casual welcomes guest Bill Kasko, President of Frontline Source Group, to gain insight and gather tips for today’s jobs seekers.

Join hosts Daniel Litwin and Tyler Kern on this snippet of Business Casual as they dissect the hiring landscape of 2020.
