Last week, the Wisconsin Professional Recruiters Resource was fortunate enough to have Betsy Falk, labor economist for southeastern Wisconsin, present to our group an economic update and outlook for Milwaukee and the seven county region. Betsy had fascinating information for us, dispelling some common misconceptions about unemployment and offering a picture of the labor workforce that looked kind of grim to many of us--especially for Milwaukee.
Check out the statistics on workforce age segmentation as well as the graduation rates and I think you'll see what I mean.
What's your view on the current economic situation here in Milwaukee? Across Wisconsin and elsewhere? I'd love to hear from you.
