Unemployment rates in the United States are returning to pre-pandemic levels. It’s still a job seekers’ market, with the economy adding more jobs than expected in September.
Nonfarm payrolls jumped by 254,000 for the month, up from a revised 159,000 in August and better than the 150,000 Dow Jones consensus forecast. Additionally, the unemployment rate fell to 4.1%, down 0.1 percentage point. This news may inspire some job hunters looking for change to move to a new state or city.
