(i = interviewer, ib = ian brinkley) i what recent trends have you noticed in employment? ib i think there are three big ones. the first one is that jobs have become much more skilled. if you look at the increases in employment, they’re all for jobs with high levels of skills. this is a very, very constant change that we’ve seen over time both in this country, and in other countries. the second big change has been the industries. the new jobs have come through in service industries, and they’ve come through particularly in what we call the ‘high-value’ service industries, and by those we mean hi-tech industries, we mean business services, we mean education services, we mean health services, and we mean the cultural and creative sectors. and these have been the big generators of new jobs, again here, and in other countries. and a third thing we’ve noticed, is a lot of this job growth is taking place in major cities, and in particular, we’re seeing a big gap open up between those cities that were doing well, and those cities doing badly. and so, this is a big problem because the new jobs are occurring only in certain parts of the country, and other parts of the country they’re really seeing little benefit from this job growth.
