This is just a quick post acknowledging the latest release of unemployment data.
It looks like we may have finally turned the corner on layoffs. Nationally, 539,000 jobs were cut in April — still a high number, but the lowest we’ve seem since October; North Carolina’s April unemployment rate remained unchanged from the previous month, at 10.8%.
If you’re looking for work, be sure and check out some of our JobSkills offerings here at Greensboro Public Library. I hear the JobTalk and Java meetings are really going great guns!
