在过去十年中，美国的就业增长一直在稳步上升，现在空缺职位的数量超过了劳动力储备。

2018年，企业平均创造了21万个新工作岗位，失业率降至3.7%。长期停滞不前的工资终于开始上涨。

紧张的劳动力市场给那些积极争取合格员工的雇主带来了挑战，组织发现根本没有足够的候选人供他们考虑，他们需要“撒下更大的网”来填补职位空缺。这种转变风险承受能力对背景调查过程有重大影响。 

在本文中，我们着眼于：

• 低失业率对招聘的影响

• 招聘和筛选流程的变化 

• 雇主需要了解的候选人经历

• Job growth has been on a steady upswing in the U.S. over the last decade, and now the number of unfilled positions exceeds the labor pool.

In 2018, businesses created an average of 210,000 new jobs while unemployment fell to 3.7%. Wages, which have long stagnated, are finally starting to rise.

In this paper, we look at:

• The impact of low unemployment on recruiting

• Changes to the hiring and screening process 

• What employers need to know about the candidate experience
