September 24, 2024 marked the 4-year anniversary of FirstPRO 360 celebrating a management buy-out with CEO Neil Ellison leading the way. With the same high quality of standards we’ve had for more than 35 years, FirstPRO 360 in Atlanta pivoted in 2020 to provide even more streamlined boutique executive search services and a deeper concentration on the Atlanta job market. As we continue to grow under our new umbrella, FirstPRO 360 wants our clients and candidates to know we are here 4 YOU!

You are why we do what we do, so stay tuned for more success in the future.

The U.S. added 254,000 jobs in September, beating previous economists’ expectations. Unemployment was little changed at 4.1%.

The payroll gain with hourly earners increasing by 0.4%, the biggest advance since March, and was led by leisure and healthcare. The number of job losers (or people being laid off) declined in the month falling by 95,000.

The breakdown in September’s payrolls report suggest strength across the board, which will continue to support risk assets. All major categories saw an increase month- over-month, with the exception of manufacturing, a sector of the economy that has been struggling for some time. Job creation was concentrated in education and healthcare – as has been the case for the most part of this year.

With all intents and purposes, experts believe the most recent job report reinforced the notion that the job market is as healthy as it has ever been. The fresh data is good news for the Federal Reserve, supporting the idea that  the economy is either headed for or has possibly already achieved a soft landing. FirstPRO 360 is here 4 the good news!
