    Hiring slowed further in September. 📉 According to LinkedIn data, national hiring fell 3.5% month-over-month and 8.7% year-over-year. Since January, hiring has declined more than 7%, and it's now over 20% below pre-pandemic levels (September 2019). Broader labor market signals are softening: 📊 The LinkedIn Separation Rate (i.e. quits) and our Labor Market Tightness metric (jobs per applicant) each dropped 4% from August to September. 💡 These shifts suggest a cooling labor market heading into fall. Even with a slowing labor market, opportunities still exist. Knowing where to look is key: 📌 Compared with September 2024, hiring has held up best in Farming, Ranching, and Forestry (+2%), Technology, Information and Media (-3%), and Construction (-3%).  📌 Hiring matches or exceeds its 2016 pace in Construction, Utilities, Consumer Services, Education, Farming, Ranching, Forestry, and Health Care.  📌 Despite the slowdown, LinkedIn data points to a moderate payroll gain of +55K in September.

    “Is AI going to take my job?” That’s the question on everyone’s mind, from recent grads to seasoned professionals. And while AI is reshaping the labor market, it’s not eliminating jobs, it’s transforming them. In our data, we’re seeing major shifts in roles across marketing, HR, and engineering as AI becomes central to writing, analyzing data, and coding. These changes can feel overwhelming, but here’s the encouraging part: 🔹 Over half of marketers and HR professionals say AI is already making them more efficient. As demand for AI literacy in jobs is up 70% year-over-year, the signal is clear: Employers are prioritizing adaptability and fluency with the latest tech. For workers, this is a moment to upskill, evolve, and reimagine your role. See my video for more details and our new report, The Guide to Future-proofing Your Career: https://lnkd.in/gbrq5zz9

    AI is reshaping work, but not in the way you might think 🤔. While many headlines are focused on job displacement, data reveals a more complex picture, as LinkedIn Economist Kory Kantenga, Ph.D. discusses in this month's edition of the State of the Labor Market:   📌 AI-induced job displacement is limited – Entry-level hiring in high-exposure roles has slowed, but macroeconomic forces, alongside AI, are dual forces impacting this group.  📌 AI investment is booming – AI startups now attract over half of global venture capital funding. 📌 Workers are pivoting – Professionals are shifting into roles where their skills are transferable, like engineers moving into education or legal pros into operations. 📌 AI engineers are in demand – They make up less than 1% of U.S. LinkedIn members but hiring this talent accounts for nearly 2% of all job postings.   Explore the full newsletter below ⬇️

    As Europe looks for resilient growth and to make the most of the opportunity AI offers, outdated hiring practices are holding it and its workforce back.    Today in Brussels, Iván Bornacelly at OECD Education and Skills and I shared how skills-based hiring could be what’s needed to both empower workers and unlock Europe’s economic potential.     Key findings of our EU Skills Signal report produced by LinkedIn's Economic Graph find:   🤝 Workers matched by skills qualify for over 2 additional roles on average in the EU, close to 6x as many roles in the Netherlands and 4x in France. 👩💻 Companies in Germany would be able to grow their AI talent pipeline by up to 15x by shifting to skills-based hiring. 📊 Momentum is building – but unevenly. Companies with fewer than 1000 employees are leading the move towards skills-based searches in the EU, with notable year-over-year reductions in degree-based searches in Ireland (down 45.5%), France (down 29.3%) and Germany (down 25.8%). Want to learn more about how skills can unlock opportunity? Check out the EU Skills Signal report: ➡️https://lnkd.in/epBUP3fJ Thank you to Victor NEGRESCU for his insightful remarks this morning and to EU Employment and Skills for welcoming us this afternoon. Thank you for a fantastic collaboration, Iván, and to all participants for a great conversation. Thank you also to my wonderful colleagues, Silvia Lara, Danielle K., Gianna De Filippis, Sarah Steinberg and Amie Wong for bringing this data to life.
