Join us as Scott Hodek, Section Chief of DWD Office of Economic Advisors, discusses current economic trends. Wisconsin's labor market was in the midst of an unprecedented talent crunch in 2019, with businesses doing everything they could to attract and retain talent. Then the pandemic hit, and Wisconsin lost almost 450,000 jobs in a single month. Learn about current conditions in today's volatile Covid-19 economy, the major workforce trends accelerated by the pandemic, and what the economy and labor market may look like post-pandemic.
