Qualified candidates struggle in a sluggish market due to Trump tariffs, AI screening and vanishing entry-level roles
The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) announced on Tuesday that the US added 911,000 fewer jobs than first estimated for the year to March 2025, highlighting already heightened concerns about the health of the labor market.
Long-term unemployment has also climbed, with 1.9 million Americans out of work for at least 27 weeks as of August 2025, double the figure from early 2023. At the same time, underemployment is growing: more people are working part-time involuntarily, or accepting jobs far below their skill level simply to secure benefits or cover bills.
