The Weak September 2025 Jobs Report: America’s Wake-Up Call
A Story That Hits Home
Meet Alexa Mamoulides. She is 27, sharp, and determined. This spring, she was laid off from her publishing job in Atlanta. Since then, she has applied to 111 jobs, scored 14 interviews, and received exactly zero offers.
“I wasn’t too stressed at first,” she says. “But now that September is here, I’m wondering how much longer this will take.”
Her struggle is not just her story. It is America’s story.
Because last month, the U.S. jobs report confirmed what millions like Alexa already feel in their gut: the labor market has hit stall speed.
Job Growth Has Stopped
August should have brought 80,000 new jobs. Instead, we got 22,000. It was the weakest monthly growth since late 2021. Unemployment rose to 4.3 percent. When you factor in revisions, the economy actually lost jobs in June. That was the first net decline since the pandemic.
Over the summer, the nation added just 88,000 jobs in total. A year ago, that number was three times higher.
This is not one bad month. This is a trend.
Manufacturing is cutting.
Construction is cutting.
Professional services are cutting.
Even government is cutting, with 15,000 jobs gone in August alone.
The only area showing growth was health and social care. Everywhere else, the engine has sputtered.
Unicorn potential. Pre-IPO access.
Uber turned cars into taxis, Airbnb turned homes into hotels, and Mode Mobile is turning smartphones into EarnPhones.
With 32,481% hockey stick growth, A-list partners, and a product with more than 50M+ users, it’s what investors call a “category disrupter.”
The kind that could turn early capital into generational wealth.
They’re raising privately.
For now.
Investors can get $0.30 pre-IPO shares… but final allocations are disappearing quickly.
With a Nasdaq ticker ($MODE) secured, the company and their 50,000+ investors have eyes on potentially going public.
Mode Mobile recently received their ticker reservation with Nasdaq ($MODE), indicating an intent to IPO in the next 24 months. An intent to IPO is no guarantee that an actual IPO will occur.
The Deloitte rankings are based on submitted applications and public company database research, with winners selected based on their fiscal-year revenue growth percentage over a three-year period.
