Help wanted: With low jobless rate, many Montana employers face challenges finding workers
July 5, 2015 /
With Yellowstone County’s unemployment rate hovering at about 3.5 percent, several businesses have resorted to hanging large "Now Hiring" banners outside.
A company advertising for cable TV installers is offering a $5,000 sign-on bonus to qualified workers.
"It becomes a seeker’s market," when unemployment is so low, said John Harper, a supervisor at Billings Job Service. "That gives lots of opportunities for employees, but for an employer, there is a lot of pressure on them."
