2021 just keeps getting better!?
- New reported Covid-19 cases in the U.S. have been steadily on the decline since early January as over 65% of adults have received at least 1 vaccine dose.?
- Oil prices have been on a steady rise since November and have just reached a 2-year high as U.S. crude inventories decline.??
- Not surprisingly, U.S. unemployment rates are plummeting.?The rate for “Management, business, and financial operations occupations,” has dropped to an astonishingly low 2.9% in May according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.?
- And much in alignment with these key economic facts, Lucas Group’s Accounting & Finance perm team hit 12-month highs in November, and then again in March and again last month!?
Eager to help anyone in the Accounting & Finance space in Houston (and surrounding areas) who is open to making a job change, I am pasting a brief summary of some of our current openings.?Please feel free to share this email with anyone you know in the Accounting / Finance field!???
