Transportation Labor Market Update Q1 2025
While the broader US labor market generally held steady in Q1, trends were mixed across the transportation sector.

Meanwhile, wage growth stagnated for driving occupations over most of the last six months.
Healthcare Labor Market Update Q1 2025
The healthcare sector appears to be softening, as more categories see declines in job postings. Therapy job postings have slipped and are down 2.5% over the past year. Wage growth slowed in most categories across healthcare, with pay for dental occupations easing the most over the last six months.
Retail Labor Market Update Q1 2025
Trends in the retail vertical match those of the overall labor market — job posting declines but stable wage growth. Retail and hospitality & tourism job postings are now below their pre-pandemic level. Food preparation & service wage growth has stabilized below the labor market average at about 2.6%.
Business-to-Business Labor Market Update Q1 2025
Trends in the business-to-business (B2B) vertical reflect those of the overall labor market — no significant developments, just continued slowing. All B2B categories except insurance have experienced job posting declines over the past year. Despite weakness in postings, software development wage growth has marked gains in the last six months.
