Percentages in a Chart

Please see the images below. The first image showing October November and December is how I want the chart to appear in Power BI. The second chart is where I'm currently at (started with the month of October). How do I show the percentages at the top of the bars (or anywhere for that matter)? The third and fourth image is what my data in Power BI looks like.

Hi, @BernierWork 

 

Try the methods mentioned by @parry2k  to achieve almost what you need.

Measure:

Measure = DIVIDE(SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Found Jobs]),SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Seeking Work]))

@BernierWork create a  measure for % and then use a line and clustered column chart, on line values drop the % measure, and in the formatting pane, change the stroke width to 0, and make sure data labels are turned on. This will do it.

It's the measure I'm unsure of. I've tried a few measures, but I'm missing something. When I do a measure it adds a new column to the chart. @parry2k
