July 2025 Jobs Report
In Episode 33 of The Jobs Report podcast by Swob, host Alexander Florio unpacks the July 2025 U.S. Jobs Report—and why it's a wake-up call for both job seekers and employers. Only 73,000 jobs were added last month, unemployment ticked up to 4.2%, and earlier job gains were slashed by over 250,000. Behind the numbers? Tariff turbulence, market jitters, and political shake-ups that are slowing hiring and making good opportunities harder to find. Alexander digs into the real-world impact, from frustrated job seekers sending out hundreds of applications without a response, to employers struggling to fill roles even in a cooling market. He highlights what's working—fast responses, pay transparency—and what's driving candidates away, like overcomplicated applications and unrealistic expectations.
