📊 Connecticut Hiring Trends – What We're Seeing in May 2025 As someone involved in the staffing space here in Connecticut, I wanted to share a quick snapshot of the trends we’re watching closely this spring: ✅ Job Growth vs. Talent Gaps: With 73,000+ open jobs and low unemployment (3.0%), companies are competing hard for skilled talent. 🏥 Healthcare is hurting: Workforce shortages continue to strain hospitals and providers — we’re seeing rising demand for nurses, allied health, and support staff. 🏭 Manufacturing is hiring: CNC machinists, robotics techs, and QA roles are hot, but many employers are struggling to find qualified candidates. 🧠 Skills-based hiring is accelerating: More companies are rethinking degree requirements and focusing on technical competencies and soft skills. 🤖 AI is changing the game: From recruitment automation to analytics, hiring is becoming faster and more data-driven. 💡 Retention is the new recruitment: Flexible schedules, wellness initiatives, and mental health support are no longer perks — they’re expected. At Randstad, we’re working daily with employers across CT to help them adapt to these shifts — whether it’s building a more agile workforce or rethinking how they hire. If you’re navigating similar challenges, let’s connect. #Staffing #ConnecticutJobs #WorkforceTrends #Hiring2025 #RecruitmentStrategy #CTWorkforce #SkillsGap
