Economists told the Economic Forum on Thursday that Nevada’s jobs growth rate is once again the best in the nation.
The growth rate was tops until the 2007 recession but dropped to last in the nation in 2009 and 2010 before beginning to recover, the Nevada Appeal reported today.
Chris Robison of the Department of Employment, Training and Rehabilitation told forum members from 2010 to 2014 Nevada businesses added nearly 100,000 jobs, much of those additions in the state’s largest employer — the leisure industry — and the state’s hardest hit sector — construction.
