A Substack newsletter on hiring trends and job market conditions written from inside recruiting, with posts on how employers screen and select candidates. Free posts are available to read and subscribe to by email.
The November 3, 2026 BLS release reports September job openings, hires, quits, and layoffs. BLS lists 7.5 million job openings, 5.4 million hires, and 5.3 million total separations; these describe the labor market, not guaranteed job prospects.
A career consultant compares shifts seen in client job searches with New Jersey Department of Labor statistics, WARN Act filings and national employment data.
WARNact.io tracks WARN Act layoff filings, the legally required notices companies file before mass layoffs and plant closures, pulled from official state workforce agency records. Filings are searchable by state, company and industry. WARNact.io is an independent tracker, not a government source, and is not affiliated with any state or federal agency.
Why I recommend it: In plain terms: a searchable list of the official layoff notices companies must file with states. It is run independently, not by the government, so check a filing against the state agency record when it matters.
ZipRecruiter Economic Research survey reporting its Job Seeker Confidence Index fell 6.3 points in Q3 2026 to 93.5, as hiring slowed and inflation ticked up.
NYCEDC's monthly data briefing on the city's economy as of September 24, 2026: private-sector employment down 12,900 in August, unemployment at 4.8% after six straight monthly declines, labor force participation at 62.1%, median asking rent near $4,000, plus office visitation, tourism, and transit numbers.
Why I recommend it: The one-page-per-topic format makes this the fastest way to sound current on the NYC economy in an interview or a client meeting. Read the jobs and small-business pages; skip the real-estate detail unless it touches your field. It is a city agency's own read of its own economy, so pair it with the raw BLS numbers if you need the unspun version.
Glassdoor research on "stability stacking" — how millennials are combining roles, side income and benefits to build job security in an unstable market.
Why I recommend it: Useful numbers to cite when you are explaining your own patchwork career history in an interview.
Job market data drawn from employer career sites since 2007 — 350+ million postings used for hiring-trend research, competitive analysis, and investment research.
Why I recommend it: Not a job board — it is where the hiring trend numbers come from. Handy when you want evidence about a field instead of vibes.
