Job Growth Surge: Private Sector Adds 15,000 Jobs Weekly as ADP Data Shows Economic Resilience
Private Sector Jobs Grow as New Roles Reach Almost 15,000 Each Week, ADP Quick Data Shows
October 28, 2025 – ADP, a well-known payroll company, shares data that shows the private sector added around 14,250 jobs each week for the past month. This rise comes after job losses in September and gives a brighter view of current work trends.
Key Points from ADP’s Quick Report
• In the last four weeks, companies made almost 15,000 new jobs each week.
• ADP now tracks a four-week average of week-to-week job changes. The report uses data that ends on October 11.
• This new report helps show work trends in near real time. It comes at a time when a government shutdown made official data hard to get.
The New ADP Job Count
ADP now shows week-to-week job changes averaged over four weeks. This tool helps investors, analysts, and policy experts see simple hints of job trends. The old National Employment Report (NER) does the work in these ways:
- It counts job numbers once a month during the week that includes the 12th.
- It gives details for each work sector.
- It is shared once a month, just before the government release for payroll numbers.
The new ADP count gives a steady, rolling look at the market. It works as an early sign of job changes while the NER gives a fuller picture when it is released.
What the Data Means
The report shows that the weekly gain of 14,250 jobs adds up to about 55,000 jobs in a month. This strong gain stands in contrast to the NER report that showed a net loss of about 32,000 jobs in September.
Nela Richardson, ADP’s chief economist, said,
"ADP’s quick job data, shared each week, gives us a clear view of the work market now. It shows both new job creation and job loss with much detail."
Note that these early numbers can change when the full NER data for October comes out.
Looking Ahead
ADP now shares its weekly reports at this busy time for the U.S. economy. At a moment when many need the latest work data amid changes in policy and economy, the information may help the market and guide financial choices until government data goes back to its normal schedule.
For readers who follow work market updates, ADP will keep posting these four-week average reports every Tuesday. This steady view helps track changes in private sector employment.
Stay tuned as more data and month-end updates come in.
