Why Companies Are Making the Switch from CareerPlug to Business Draft

Many companies are moving away from CareerPlug to Business Draft due to outdated technology, limited data insights, and poor support experiences. Business Draft offers a dynamic and evolving hiring platform with regular monthly updates, seamless integrations with industry leaders like Indeed and Google, and a smoother candidate experience. It also provides advanced analytics, reliable automation for repetitive tasks, and cost-effective solutions that deliver value. Unlike CareerPlug, Business Draft is backed by 365-day support from a knowledgeable USA-based team, ensuring clear communication and timely assistance for recruiters. This makes Business Draft the preferred choice for companies seeking a more efficient and effective hiring solution.

September Jobs Report: U.S. Employers Continue to Add Jobs Despite Economic Uncertainty

In September, U.S. employers added 254,000 jobs, exceeding expectations of 140,000 and marking the highest gain since March. Revisions from previous months added another 72,000 jobs. The unemployment rate dropped to 4.1%, signaling a healthy labor market as more people find work. Job gains were led by the healthcare sector, which added 72,000 jobs, followed by restaurants with 69,000. However, manufacturing lost 7,000 jobs, particularly in car manufacturing. The tech sector showed modest improvement with 6,000 new jobs, while temporary help services saw a decline of 14,000 jobs, likely due to increased permanent hiring. While this report offers optimism for the Federal Reserve in managing inflation and a potential soft landing, it remains one month of data, and labor market weakening is still possible. Hiring is slower compared to last year, but inflation has cooled, and consumer spending remains stable, providing a cautiously positive outlook for the economy.
