Job Growth by Sector

A forecast by Moody's Economy.com shows a breakdown of US employment sector growth by state in years 2010-2012. The sectors including construction, financial/professional services, trade/manufacturing, transportation and leisure all show negative trends at -2.3% or more throughout most of the country.

Government and Educational/Health Services show neutral to slightly upward growth of 1-2% or more providing further evidence of the shifting dynamics as a result of the financial meltdown and priorities of the Obama administration.
