Posted on 05/08 by Erin Helms

While the economy is always subject to ups and downs, the past few years have created new levels of instability. Massive disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, paired with high inflation and the threat of a recession, have had a severe impact on both employers and employees in some of the country’s core industries – light industrial, manufacturing, and general labor. For job seekers in these industries, this is an especially challenging time. Finding employment isn’t easy in the best of circumstances, but with so much uncertainty and economic turbulence, it can feel like an uphill battle.
