The Labor Department said on Friday that the economy created 254,000 jobs in September, smashing Wall Street expectations and giving another boost to the Federal Reserve looking to ease off on the country's interest rate
Restaurants and bars did robust hiring in September, adding 69,000 jobs last month, more than quadrupling their monthly average of 14,000 over the past 12 months, the Labor Department said. The healthcare sector added 45,000 jobs while the government contributed 31,000.
Other sectors adding jobs in September included social assistance (27,000) and construction (25,000).
I’m curious about the healthcare jobs, and if these include insurance paper pushers.
There’s a lot of nurse hiring going on. Travel nurses are still a big thing but it’s started to level off a bit with increased pay/incentives and people getting tired of travel. Some of these probably are bs admin type jobs but I don’t think health insurance has grown that much that quickly.
