Introduction: Region 10

Key Findings for Region 10, Quarter 4 2017

Online job postings within the Region 10 reached a new high during Q4 2017.

During Q4 2017, employer demand for all occupations fell by 19 percent to 99,016 online job postings. Despite this considerable drop, demand is still nearly double 2011-2013 levels, which regularly varied around about 56,000 postings. The recent decline follows record growth in demand during early 2017, and may be due to any combination of factors such as a typical Q4 slow-down or response to policy changes.

Registered Nurses take over as top in-demand job with large jump in postings.

Always a top occupation within the Health Care group, Registered Nurses have retained their top spot despite a loss of about 1,000 postings from Q1 2017, while Truck Drivers have fallen from second to fifth place. Many other Health Care occupations offer opportunities for job and wage advancement proportional to education and experience, in addition to consistent employment growth. See page 37 for more details.

Lucrative opportunities in Engineering and Design and IT group.

Both the Engineering and Design and IT occupation groups offered higher than average advertised salaries compared to other groups. Engineers and Designers reported an average salary around $85,000 per year while IT was slightly higher at $90,000. Those willing to overcome the education barriers in these fields can expect high potential earnings.

Employment reached a new annual high in 2017, expanding 2.5% and adding over 40,000 jobs since 2016.

With the addition of 43,516 jobs over the course of 2017, the total number of jobs held in the region increased to nearly 1.8 million. This milestone employment number was last experienced in early 2007, before the recession. See page 4 for more details.

Many growing occupations in the Region 10 require a bachelor’s degree.

Most postings in the Business and Finance, Engineering and Design, and IT occupation groups require a bachelor’s degree. Each of these occupation groups report generally growing demand as well as relatively high salaries. However, there are opportunities in most groups for a variety of education levels. Many Health Care occupations are attainable with an associate’s degree and most entry-level Skilled Trades and Energy jobs prefer a high school diploma paired with on-the-job training.

Workforce and Employer Demand Indicators

Postings over time Online job ads for occupations in Region 10 plummeted by 19 percent (23,556 postings) from 122,572 in Q3 2017 to 99,016 in Q4. Despite this considerable drop, demand is still nearly double 2011-2013 levels, which varied around about 56,000 postings. The recent decline follows record growth in demand during early 2017.

12

Customer Service Occupation Group

Introduction The customer service group is the largest occupational group that WIN analyzes, both in terms of employment and online job postings.

This group is of very high importance to the region because it is the first to grow when the economy expands and the first to contract in a downturn: it is often a leading indicator. As defined by WIN, this group encompasses all customer service occupations, with skills transferrable across the retail sector, the hotel industry, food and beverage service industry, call centers, and other areas.

Online Job Postings

Data: Burning Glass Technologies Analysis: Workforce Intelligence Network

Job Posting Analysis Online job ads for Customer Service workers fell 14 percent between Q3 and Q4 2017, losing 3,731 postings for a total of 23,050. Since Q2 2015, demand has been varying between 20,000 and 30,000 ads, with a peak of 27,977 in Q2 2017.

Employment Over Time 2001 - 2017

Employment Analysis Employment in Customer Service occupations has increased 11 percent since the 2010 recession low, adding 50,000 jobs. 2017 estimates show that 504,236 individuals are employed in Customer Servicerelated jobs, making it the region’s largest occupation group. Job growth is slow but steady and employers must add another 23,000 jobs to reach 2001 employment levels.

Customer Service Education and Experience

Entry-level opportunities available in Customer Service

Educational Attainment

Customer Service jobs either require little to no training past a high school education (representing 62 percent of Q4 postings) or a Bachelor’s degree (32 percent). This is because occupations in the group range from retail sales and other lower skill jobs to those in sales and management positions.

Similarly, many Customer Service jobs are open to entry-level workers, with zero to two years being the most frequently cited experience level in job ads.

Often, these jobs allow individuals to gain experience and foundational skills before transitioning to another career path or a leadership role. Another 31 percent of postings request three to five years, likely representing management and sales positions.

Education Occupation Group

Introduction Education-related jobs can be found both in the private and public sectors with teachers and other educationrelated workers employed in public schools, private schools, and training institutions. Jobs in the education occupation group require a variety of skills and credentials dependent on the target age group and topic area for the educator. From elementary school teachers to college professors, educators are the backbone of training the future workforce.

Online Job Postings

Data: Burning Glass Technologies Analysis: Workforce Intelligence Network

Job Posting Analysis Job postings in Education do not follow a traditional business cycle like many other occupation groups. Instead, Education hiring peaks during quarter three, particularly in July and August when schools ramp up staffing for the school year. In Q4 2017 postings fell by 348 postings following this typical Q3 spike for 1,632 job ads. Despite quarterly variation, education postings have trended upward over time, with 1,000 more advertisements this Q4 2017 than in 2011.

Employment Over Time 2001 - 2017

Employment Analysis Unlike many other occupation groups that have recovered jobs since the recession, Education employment has been declining since 2004 and currently has 37,619 workers compared to 50,716 during its 2004 peak. There was also no extreme drop in employment during 2009 and 2010 as the economy collapsed. Education positions, many of which are publicly funded, typically follow government spending on educator positions and part versus fulltime faculty choices made by universities in response.

Many positions in Education require college education as training requirements continue to grow. Most (40 percent) of Q4 2017 postings specifying education request candidates with a bachelor’s degree. Some positions, like teaching assistants, generally require vocational training instead of a degree. This is reflected in the 36 percent of postings open to those with a high school diploma.

Of the 477 job postings advertising required experience, most are open to less experienced workers; 75 percent offer entry-level opportunities.

The next most requested experience is three to five years, with 21 percent of ads preferring this criterion. Few postings require more than five years of experience.

Engineers & Designers Occupation Group (Manufacturing Focused) Introduction Jobs in the manufacturing industry can range from assembly and production, to skilled trades and technicians, designers and engineers, and even computerrelated occupations such as software development. Demand for engineers in the region has been consistent, and employment has been growing quickly.

Online Job Postings

Job Posting Analysis Online job ads for Engineers and Designers continued their downward trend during Q4 2017, falling 24 percent to 5,482 postings. Although this is well below the Q3 2015 peak of 9,410 postings, demand is still high as postings seem to be returning to a long-running average that held between 2011 and early 2015. This suggestion of stability, rather than decline, can also be inferred from the employment data below.

Data: Burning Glass Technologies Analysis: Workforce Intelligence Network

Employment Over Time 2001 - 2017

Employment Analysis Employment in occupations related to Engineers and Designers continued to grow between 2016 and 2017, gaining 1,821 positions for 78,209 in total. A downward trend of employment for Region 10 engineers began in 2001 when employment peaked at 76,805 jobs, well before the Great Recession of 2009. Since the lowest point of 50,255 workers in 2009, growth has been consistent.
