Wage Growth, Job Growth And The Ongoing Unemployment Puzzle (Tom Ashbrook, On Point)

It has been a long road back for the American job market. And although there are some bright spots – job openings are at a record high – there are plenty of workers eager for better opportunities, or even any opportunity. We’ll dig into the numbers, to understand what employers, and job seekers, are seeing. What it means to cobble together part-time gigs. Where the best opportunities are. And we’ll also look at new pushes across the country for a higher minimum wage. This hour, On Point, a big look at the labor market. /Tom Ashbrook
