It was down 29% in April year-over-year, and down 0.1% from March. Several industries, including manufacturing, hospitals and healthcare and retail, are facing an even tighter labor market in the first half of 2023, LinkedIn said.<\/p>\n<div data-layout=\"wrap\n                \" data-layout-mobile=\"\" class=\"\n          media-object\n          type-InsetMediaIllustration\n            wrap\n  article__inset\n          article__inset--type-InsetMediaIllustration\n            article__inset--wrap\n  \"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"\n        media-object-image\n        enlarge-image\n        img-wrap\n        article__inset__image\n      \" itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\"><\/p>\n<\/figure><\/div>\n<p>Despite that downward trend, there are more remote and hybrid opportunities for entry-level workers: 12.3% of entry-level job postings were either remote or hybrid in the first two months of 2023, up from 9.6% for the same period last year.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Entry-level hiring rose 25.6% in April year-over-year for roles such as product manager, product owner and product development specialist. For those without a bachelor\u2019s degree, the fastest-growing jobs were in consulting, marketing and research; they saw 20% growth.<\/p>\n<p>The tech, media and financial industries have announced layoffs and hiring freezes in recent months. However, many of these layoffs came after rapid hiring during the pandemic, said LinkedIn career expert Andrew McCaskill.\u00a0\u201cThings are just going from a \u2018boil\u2019 to a \u2018cool,\u2019\u201d he said. <\/p>\n<p>McCaskill also said many of those sectors are still hiring entry-level workers. Industry observers say young graduates are often cheaper to hire than more experienced workers, but many companies are also ready to train them, particularly in industries where hiring is challenging.<\/p>\n<div data-layout=\"wrap\n                \" data-layout-mobile=\"\" class=\"\n          media-object\n          type-InsetMediaIllustration\n            wrap\n  article__inset\n          article__inset--type-InsetMediaIllustration\n            article__inset--wrap\n  \"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"\n        media-object-image\n        enlarge-image\n        img-wrap\n        article__inset__image\n      \" itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\"><\/p>\n<\/figure><\/div>\n<p>Case in point: Tech-sector companies increased staffing by 18,795 positions in April, the largest volume of monthly hiring since August 2022, according to a separate report released earlier this month by CompTIA\u2019s Tech Jobs Report.<\/p>\n<p>Employers listed more than 300,000 job postings for tech positions in April, despite a wave of layoffs from Silicon Valley companies including Alphabet Inc.\u2019s Google<br \/>\n        GOOGL,<br \/>\n        <bg-quote field=\"percentchange\" format=\"0,000.00%\" channel=\"\/zigman2\/quotes\/202490156\/lastsale\" class=\"positive\">+1.87%<\/bg-quote><\/p>\n<p>        GOOG,<br \/>\n        <bg-quote field=\"percentchange\" format=\"0,000.00%\" channel=\"\/zigman2\/quotes\/205453964\/composite\" class=\"positive\">+2.13%<\/bg-quote><span>,<\/span><br \/>\n       Salesforce Inc.<br \/>\n        CRM,<br \/>\n        <bg-quote field=\"percentchange\" format=\"0,000.00%\" channel=\"\/zigman2\/quotes\/200515854\/composite\" class=\"negative\">-0.05%<\/bg-quote><span>,<\/span><br \/>\n       Facebook parent Meta Platforms Inc.<br \/>\n        META,<br \/>\n        <bg-quote field=\"percentchange\" format=\"0,000.00%\" channel=\"\/zigman2\/quotes\/205064656\/composite\" class=\"positive\">+1.09%<\/bg-quote><span>,<\/span><br \/>\n       and Microsoft Corp.<br \/>\n        MSFT,<br \/>\n        <bg-quote field=\"percentchange\" format=\"0,000.00%\" channel=\"\/zigman2\/quotes\/207732364\/composite\" class=\"positive\">+0.89%<\/bg-quote><span>,<\/span><br \/>\n       among others.<\/p>\n<p>Career experts also recommend tailoring your r\u00e9sum\u00e9 for each individual job, networking with college alumni if you are a graduate, and thoroughly researching any company where you are applying for a job. Finally, come to any interview with a curious mind, and ask questions.<\/p>\n<p>Younger workers should also maintain an open mind. Being flexible and emphasizing how your skills match the job of your choice are key for younger workers seeking work, McCaskill said.
