From CareerBuilder’s Work Life Blog:
Job growth soared in November, with the U.S economy adding 215,000 jobs � the biggest bump since July, according to data released this morning by the U.S. Department of Labor�s Bureau of Labor Statistics. This is a good indication that the job market has finally recovered from its post-Katrina slowdown.
The post-Katrina rebuilding and clean-up efforts helped create plenty of jobs in the construction industry. Construction employment rose by 37,000, with heavy and civil engineering construction jobs accounting for 14,000 positions.
Other industries that experienced healthy growth last month:
- Professional and technical services: 22,000 jobs
- Health care: 20,000 jobs
- Food services: 39,000 jobs
