  • The Minneapolis Job Market: Resilience and Shifts Amid Cooling but Stable Conditions
    Dec 19 2025
    Minneapolis listeners are seeing a job market that is cooling from the post‑pandemic boom but still characterized by relatively high employment, steady job creation, and rising unemployment as more people re‑enter or remain in the labor force. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Midwest office reports that the Minneapolis–St. Paul labor market now totals roughly 1.5 million workers, with the metro unemployment rate hovering around the low‑4 percent range in late 2025, up from closer to 3 percent a year earlier, signaling softer but not recessionary conditions. A Minneapolis–St. Paul Economic Summary from BLS in September 2025 shows that total nonfarm employment is dominated by trade, transportation and utilities, professional and business services, education and health services, and government, with health care and professional services among the strongest job contributors. Occupational employment data for May 2024 from BLS indicate especially large concentrations of jobs in office and administrative support, health care practitioners and support roles, business and financial operations, and technology occupations, with wages in many professional fields running above national averages. A December 2025 Minneapolis Fed review of regional business conditions notes that nonresidential construction firms still report strong labor demand and hiring challenges, especially for skilled trades, even as project pipelines have softened, confirming ongoing worker shortages in specialized fields. At the state level, a Minnesota Job Openings and Labor Turnover report for mid‑2025 shows job openings still elevated by historical standards but down from pandemic peaks, with quits moderating, a sign that workers are somewhat less confident but employers remain actively hiring. According to the City of Minneapolis, the local minimum wage will rise to 16 dollars and 37 cents per hour on January 1, 2026, which may add modest upward pressure on wages in lower‑pay sectors such as hospitality and retail. Seasonal patterns remain evident: construction, tourism, and hospitality ramp up in spring and summer, while hiring cools in late fall and winter, although health care and tech recruitment are more stable year‑round. Commuting is shaped by a strong transit and biking culture and a sizable remote and hybrid workforce; recent employer surveys from the Minneapolis Fed and regional business groups suggest many white‑collar roles remain at least partially remote, broadening the effective labor shed beyond the core city. Government initiatives focus on inclusive hiring, training in technology and health care, and support for small businesses, with state workforce agencies and local partners funding reskilling in analytics, AI, and skilled trades. Data gaps remain around neighborhood‑level disparities, informal and gig work, and real‑time wages in emerging AI and green‑energy roles. Overall, key findings for listeners are that Minneapolis still offers a resilient, diversified job base; unemployment has ticked up but mostly because more people are seeking work; health care, professional and business services, tech, and skilled construction trades are leading growth; and policy changes such as the 2026 minimum‑wage hike and ongoing training programs are reshaping labor costs and opportunities. Examples of current opportunities in the city include a software engineer position at Target’s Minneapolis technology hub, a registered nurse opening at M Health Fairview, and a data analyst role at the University of Minnesota’s Carlson School–affiliated analytics teams.

  • Minneapolis Job Market 2025: Diversified, Cooling, and Evolving
    Dec 15 2025
    Minneapolis currently has a relatively tight but cooling job market, with unemployment slightly above recent lows yet still better than many U.S. metros. According to the Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development, the Minneapolis–St. Paul metro unemployment rate has been hovering near the low to mid 3 percent range in 2025, up from around 2–3 percent in 2022–2023 but below the roughly 4.4 percent U.S. rate economists expect nationally, reflecting a resilient regional economy. The employment landscape is diversified: major industries include health care and social assistance, professional and technical services, finance and insurance, manufacturing, education, retail, and hospitality, anchored by large employers such as Target, UnitedHealth Group, 3M, U.S. Bank, Allina Health, Fairview Health, the University of Minnesota, and Hennepin County. The Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis reports that nationally and in the region hiring has slowed even as more people reenter the labor force, creating a “low-hire, low-fire” environment where job seekers face more competition and longer searches. Health care, IT and software, medical devices, clean energy, logistics, and advanced manufacturing are among the faster-growing sectors, while some office and administrative roles face automation and AI-driven screening. Recent developments include increased use of remote and hybrid work, ongoing restructuring in retail and office real estate, and equity-focused debates over employment and diversity, reflected in legal challenges to Minneapolis Public Schools’ diversity hiring provisions. Seasonal patterns show stronger hiring in retail, logistics, construction, and tourism in late spring through early fall, with softer conditions in mid-winter. Commuting trends continue to shift: Metro Transit ridership remains below pre-pandemic levels as more workers split time between home and downtown, and suburban job centers along light rail and major highways have gained importance. State and local government initiatives include workforce training grants, displaced worker programs, and sector partnerships targeting health care, trades, and tech; however, there are data gaps in up-to-the-minute neighborhood-level unemployment, real-time wage growth by occupation, and outcomes for specific demographic groups, including Black women, who some Minnesota commentators note are facing rising unemployment in 2025. As of mid-December 2025, examples of current openings in Minneapolis include a software engineer role at Target Corporation, a registered nurse position at Allina Health, and a financial analyst opening at U.S. Bank. Key findings: the Minneapolis job market remains diversified and comparatively strong, but hiring is cooler, competition is rising, and success increasingly depends on sector choice, skills, and the ability to navigate AI-driven hiring and evolving commuting and work patterns.

  • Minneapolis Job Market Holds Steady: Opportunities in Healthcare, Trades, and Specialized Roles
    Dec 12 2025
    Minneapolis currently offers a relatively tight but resilient job market, with unemployment slightly below national levels and steady job growth. The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports Minnesota’s September 2025 unemployment rate at about 3.7 percent, up from roughly 3.1 percent a year earlier, while state nonfarm employment grew about 1.4 percent over the year, indicating cooling but still positive momentum. According to the Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development and the Minneapolis Regional Chamber, the metro employment landscape is dominated by health care, professional and business services, finance and insurance, education, manufacturing, retail, and hospitality, with major employers including Target, UnitedHealth Group, 3M, U.S. Bank, Wells Fargo, Allina Health, Fairview Health, Hennepin Healthcare, the University of Minnesota, and state and local government. Listeners should note that the most recent granular data for the Minneapolis–St. Paul metro from the Bureau of Labor Statistics metropolitan area program lags state data by several months, creating some gaps for very current, city‑specific statistics. Recent trends show slower hiring in white‑collar and tech roles, while health care, leisure and hospitality, logistics, and advanced manufacturing continue to add positions; the Minnesota Chamber highlights ongoing difficulty filling skilled trades and manufacturing roles, suggesting continued demand despite broader uncertainty. The Minneapolis Fed’s construction surveys describe softer construction activity due to higher costs and cautious clients, yet many firms still report trouble finding qualified workers, especially in specialty trades, pointing to a mixed but opportunity‑rich environment. Unemployment remains higher for young adults and some lower‑income workers, and national JOLTS data from the U.S. Department of Labor show lower quit rates and slightly higher layoffs, signaling a more employer‑driven market than in the immediate post‑pandemic period. Seasonal patterns in Minneapolis typically include stronger hiring in construction, tourism, and outdoor services in spring and summer, with retail and logistics peaks in late fall and early winter. Commuting trends, based on local transportation and employer reports, continue to favor hybrid work, with many downtown employers operating flexible schedules that keep transit ridership and office occupancy below pre‑2020 levels. Government initiatives such as state workforce training grants, youth employment partnerships, and sector‑based training in health care, IT, and manufacturing aim to address skill gaps and support underrepresented workers, but detailed program outcome data are not yet fully available for 2025. The market has evolved from rapid post‑pandemic recovery to a mature phase of slower growth, tighter hiring standards, and stronger emphasis on skills, credentials, and experience. As of this week, current sample openings in Minneapolis include a software engineer position at Target’s digital division, a registered nurse role at Allina Health, and a maintenance technician job with a regional manufacturing firm, reflecting the mix of corporate, health care, and skilled trade demand. Key findings for listeners are that Minneapolis remains a relatively strong Midwestern job hub, competition for many roles is increasing, but qualified candidates in health care, skilled trades, and specialized professional services still have solid prospects.
