Working in Vermont
Employment Landscape
Vermont’s job market remains constrained and nuanced at the start of 2026. Unemployment lingered around 2.5 to 2.6 percent through late 2025—even though the labor force has shrunk, in part due to retirements and demographic shifts—creating a tight supply of workers but also fewer openings. The number of job openings fell from roughly 21,000 in January 2025 to around 15,000 by mid‑year, raising competition among job seekers. Manufacturing suffered some volatility with a noticeable spike in layoffs, especially evident in late summer when nearly two‑thirds of all new unemployment claims came from that sector. On the upside, state government and healthcare sectors showed relative stability or mild growth. Yet the ongoing housing shortage, population stagnation, and slow job recovery compared to pre‑Covid levels are real constraints for those looking to settle or advance their careers here.

Typical Roles
Hiring Patterns
Demand remains uneven. Health care and government roles continue to offer steady hiring, while manufacturing and private‑sector openings have slowed or contracted. Competition is increasing as fewer positions are posted and more people vie for those that appear.
""You will find places hiring—but with fewer openings, each one draws more eyes. You may need to stretch beyond your comfort zone or sector to land in.""
