Where did the jobs go? Some end search in tough market
Unemployment rising in Hall, Georgia this summer

Unemployment is on the rise again in Hall County, and 500 Georgians gave up on the job search during June. There are jobs available, workforce experts said, but often the skills of those seeking positions don’t match the requirements of the openings. That could explain, in part, Hall County’s jump to 7.6 percent unemployment in June from 6.9 percent during May, according to the Georgia Department of Labor.
