Recent statistics show that the Milwaukee Metro area takes the lead in job growth (faster than 20 other metro areas like Chicago, San Antonio, Raleigh, Columbus, Portland and San Jose). In May alone, the Milwaukee job market increased by 2.39% which is above the national average of 0.73%, and the primary contributor appears to be the manufacturing industry.
Fusion, which is a Milwaukee – based company, has increased the number of employees by 22% within the last three months. 80% of the new employees hold positions within the manufacturing industry. Fusion is more than eager to help contribute to Milwaukee’s job market success.
