 On the last day in May, the country had just over 8 million job openings, a little higher than the month before. But economists say there's no indication that the labor market is heating up again. Job openings have been on a slow and steady decline the last couple of years. The share of workers quitting their jobs remained flat at 2.2 percent, where it's been for seven months. That's far lower than it was in 2021 and 2022 during the so-called Great Resignation.
