Introduction: Jackson County
Key Findings for Jackson County Most occupation groups experienced a decrease in online job postings during Q2 2016. During the recent quarter, online job postings in Jackson County fell by 14.7%. One reason for the decline is the drop in online job ads for the Health Care group which saw 163 fewer postings than the previous quarter. IT and Agriculture also witnessed declines in postings while Skilled Trade and Energy postings only increased by a few postings . See page 3 for more details. Employment numbers continue to strengthen within Jackson County. After hitting a low point toward the end of 2009 (around 64,000 individuals), employment has nearly hit 70,000 workers during Q2 2016 and continues an upward trend. Unemployment has been steadily decreasing as well, hitting a relative low point around 4.5% during Q2 2016. The IT occupation group reported highest advertised salaries of all occupation groups during Q2 2016. Employers that posted salary information for their posted IT jobs showed that workers could make over $75,000 per year. This presents a lucrative opportunity for job seekers willing to overcome the educational barrier to enter this field. Heavy and Tractor-Trailer Truck Drivers witnessed large jump in postings. The top in-demand occupation in Jackson County, heavy and tractor-trailer truck drivers, witnessed an increase of 55 postings from Q1 2016 (XX% growth). This was one of the few top jobs to see an increase in postings during this time frame. With the high demand for truckers, job seekers looking for an occupation could benefit by obtaining a commercial driver’s license (CDL) and enrolling in a truck driving training program. Most employers in Jackson County look for 0-5 years of experience. Within the occupation groups analyzed in this report a majority of postings were looking for 0-5 years of experience. Health Care and Skilled Trades sought out those with 0-2 years of experience, showing a push for entry level within these fields.
