I dont understand this measurement. Instead of simply posting job growth they are posting the percent that each metro area has grown as a percentage of all jobs in the country?!? That's very odd.
Well for those of us that just want job growth numbers:
At last official count, there are 53 Metro Areas(MSAs) with populations of 1 million or greater.
Here is a look at the growth in non-farm jobs in those metro areas from Feb 2010-Feb 2019(latest month available)
