MogiUS states added job postings with Nebraska falling the most
Nebraska saw the largest fall in job postings over the last seven days, while other states also experienced declines.

Nebraska saw job postings fall by eighteen percent in the last seven days. This was the largest decrease among US states. Other states also experienced a fall in job postings during the same period.
Maine job postings fell by nine percent. New Mexico job postings fell by eleven percent. Alaska job postings fell by twenty percent. Washington D.C. job postings fell by seventeen percent.
The fall in Nebraska may be because employers like Hy-Vee, Inc., Nebraska Department of Transportation, and Nebraska Medicine posted fewer jobs. The decrease in postings could also be due to fewer Software Engineer, Product Manager, or Analytics Engineer roles being advertised. It is likely that overall job posting activity decreased across these states.
