Job alert: These Sweetwater jobs are accepting applications

(SWEETWATER, TX) The national job market appears to be continuing to slowly improve, according to recent federal data — and these local companies are hiring in Sweetwater.

The most recent numbers available from the Bureau of Labor Statistics showed nonfarm payrolls rising by just 266,000 in April. Unemployment was little changed from the month before, at 6.1%.

The changes marked a slowing of the growth of the US job market, with April adding less than a third as many jobs as were added the month before.

And while the increase showed hiring is continuing, unemployment was still 2.4 percentage points higher than its level in February 2020, showing the ongoing effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on the U.S. economy.
