Read full article: COVID pandemic tougher on women’s mental health, experts say

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Isolation, stress or the loss of a loved one due to the COVID-19 pandemic are all having an effect on people’s wellbeing. It’s been exactly one year since the official declaration of the pandemic, and mental health experts argue the mental toll on women has been worse compared to men. Additionally, it says more than two in five of the 12.2 million women’s jobs lost between February and April 2020 haven’t returned. AdStephanie Peyton, a licensed clinician and therapist who owns Anew Therapy, said that she has seen more women seeking help during the pandemic. Peyton and Springer said there is hope this year to bring healing and change for how society addresses the needs of those who suffer from trauma and mental health issues.

GM strike could make October jobs report look bad

Read full article: GM strike could make October jobs report look bad

Although the slowing economy and the trade war might have hurt job creation, Friday's jobs report will be all about General Motors. The jobs report will serve as a barometer for how much the 40-day General Motors strike weighed on the economy. The US Bureau of Labor Statistics will release its jobs report at 8:30 am ET Friday. The GM strike, which began in late September, took 50,000 striking autoworkers out of the job market. Further weakness in the manufacturing sector could "cloud the October jobs report as it suggests that manufacturers may soon be planning workforce reductions," said Bovino.

'Should I personalize my resume for each company?' All your latest job search questions, answered

Read full article: 'Should I personalize my resume for each company?' All your latest job search questions, answered

With the unemployment rate at 3.7%, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the current job market more so than in recent years seems to favor job seekers rather than companies. What should job seekers be looking for most with available openings? Its important that job seekers look for positions that have qualities which they know theyll be happy and productive with in the long-term. Many job seekers have a strategy of producing one generic resume and cover letter and sending it out to dozens, if not hundreds, of companies that are hiring. But knowing a prominent person in a company doesnt necessarily guarantee a job, especially if that person isnt in good standing with the company, Martin said.

Here's what to look for in Friday's jobs report

Read full article: Here's what to look for in Friday's jobs report

But the rapid job growth of the past two years seems to be cooling off. Economists polled by Refinitiv estimate that Friday's employment report from the Labor Department will show that the nation added 160,000 jobs in June, while remaining at a historically low 3.6% unemployment rate. Zandi was discussing the June report from payroll processor ADP, an imperfect proxy for the Bureau of Labor Statistics' survey, which showed particular weakness in construction and retail jobs. "Normally, as employment growth slows late in a cycle, we still get accelerating wage gains," Berson said. "If job growth slows, then acceleration in wages may not be all that rapid, but they're still likely to move higher."
