REXBURG — Despite a low unemployment rate, Rexburg employers are continuing to fill job openings. 

Since June, the city’s labor market has had an unemployment rate of 2.8% — the lowest unemployment rate in the state, according to Ryan Whitesides with the Idaho Department of Labor. 

“This unemployment rate bodes well with a reduced competition for jobs, especially this time of year,” Whitesides said in a news release. “It’s more of a job seekers’ market in the Rexburg area.”

The Idaho Department of Labor is hosting a hiring event on Tuesday, Aug. 6. It will be from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Veterans of Foreign Wars building, 480 West 2nd North.

More than 20 employers, including those in industries such as cybersecurity, home health, and engineering, will be in attendance.
