Baltimore’s job market in late 2025 remains sizable and diverse with over 93,000 jobs currently posted online, according to Indeed.com. The region supports a robust employment landscape driven by health care, education, logistics, hospitality, technology, and government. Johns Hopkins University and Hospital, the University of Maryland Medical System, CareFirst, and Under Armour persist as anchor employers. The unemployment rate for Baltimore city hovers around the national average, though more detailed local data is not consistently available for fall 2025; national figures from the Triad Business Journal place unemployment for recent college grads at 4.59 percent, an uptick since 2019 but still historically moderate. Trends in 2025 show continued contraction in white-collar office work, impacted by both corporate cost-cutting and increased adoption of artificial intelligence, as reported by Stansberry Research and the Wall Street Journal. However, hands-on jobs in health care, trades, logistics, and service remain comparatively resilient. Growing sectors include life sciences, biotech, and clean energy. TEDCO’s Maryland Innovation Initiative has recently supported several Baltimore-based startups in medical technology and artificial intelligence, helping to create more than 450 jobs statewide since inception. State and city initiatives continue to focus on fostering technology, inclusive entrepreneurship, and workforce training, with expanded grant programs and technical training partnerships between local institutions like Morgan State, Johns Hopkins, and the University of Maryland. Seasonal employment patterns are visible in retail and hospitality, with heightened demand during the holidays and convention periods, while sectors like education offer steadier year-round hiring. Commuting trends remain affected by hybrid and remote work options, reducing some inbound suburban traffic but still sustaining robust public transit and regional rail use. There is growing demand in skilled trades and green energy jobs, with new training launched by Civic Works and others. Despite some recent layoffs and hiring freezes in large corporations, small business openings and job postings are stable or slightly increased in warehouse, health care, and customer-facing roles, echoing patterns across Maryland. Data gaps persist in specific neighborhood-level unemployment numbers and granular wage details. For listeners seeking immediate opportunities, openings in Baltimore right now include a Parking Enforcement Agent with Taggr paying $25 to $60 per hour with flexible hours, a Seasonal Associate at ALO in Harbor East at $16 an hour, and a Hotel Room Attendant at Days Inn Inner Harbor offering $18.50 an hour with benefits. In summary, Baltimore’s job market exhibits resilience in many traditional sectors, ongoing growth in technology and life sciences, and is adapting to new trends in remote work and workforce development, with continued government and private investment strengthening its outlook for 2026.
