Cooling job market doesn't take the heat off the holiday hiring spree

“It still is a very, very tough hiring environment, especially in states and cities with very low unemployment rates,” said Julia Pollak, chief economist at ZipRecruiter. “Employers tell us that they are still really struggling to find qualified candidates and to find motivated willing candidates. So, even when they sign candidates, they’re very worried about ghosting, that people won’t show up on day one, because people have so many alternatives and are taking the best offer that they get.

“The labor market is a real conundrum for employers and is one of the reasons consumers have behaved in such a resilient way because wages are increasing and there’s pressure on the market, and that keeps people spending,” Matt Shay, president of the retail federation, said in a call with reporters earlier this month.

For UPS, which is hiring 100,000 seasonal workers again this holiday season, it remains a war for candidates. The company is on track to meet its hiring goal, but some regions remain particularly difficult to find workers, such as Minneapolis, parts of New England like Cape Cod, Denver and the surrounding mountain communities.

It's about time the tables turned.

Good.

Left Wing Fake News Media like NBC won’t report the low buyer turnout to brick & mortar stores this year.

This just in, we are losing jobs in droves, but shipping companies want to hire people for 2 months and then lay them off. Everything's fine. Everything's just fricken peachy...

The holiday season last for another 4 weeks. Those people will be laid off from those jobs. Then we're left with a recession and more and more jobs will be eliminated. Things are not going to get better folks.... Things are going to get worse before they get better.

Every Business is HURTING to hire good employees. This generation thinks its special and deserves a free ride in life. 😱 Doesn't want to work for a living. When there are NO Help wanted signs everywhere, then we will be on the right track again.

Rental market cooling down in Phoenix, but rent affordability still an issue for some peopleWhile there's been a cooling down of sorts recently, real estate experts say the average Arizona worker must devote 61 hours of their paycheck every month to afford rent, which is 20 more hours than five years ago. Rents are crazy high... so Glad I own my home. I do not know how people afford it. Gonna get even worse if Racist Hobbs becomes governor. She'll turn Arizona into Commiefornia East. And it's just gonna get worse with Hobbs and Kelley 🤷‍♂️ New Illinois and New California, Arizona is no longer Arizona
