September 2024 Workforce Report

The labor market continues to cool. iCIMS August data was both a little good and a little not-so-good. While applications remained steady, so did employers’ hesitation to hire.

Recent trends

Applications creep up 10%

This increase could be related to the uptick in unemployment reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics last month.

Tech jobs remain hot-to-go

Applicants per opening for tech roles jumped 36% in one year, and those positions now receive, on average, double the number of applicants than the overall market.

Maybe AI isn’t so scary?

58% of workers say that economic uncertainty and the rise of AI in the workplace would not affect their desire to secure a job in tech.
