US job openings slipped to 7.44 million in June, down from 7.71 million in May, according to the latest Bureau of Labor Statistics data. The decline was broad-based, with notable drops in accommodation and food services, health care, and finance and insurance.
While openings remain above pre-pandemic averages—pointing to continued but slower demand for workers—hiring has cooled, and job seekers are taking longer to find employment. The hiring rate fell to 3.3%, the lowest since November, and fewer people are quitting their jobs, suggesting waning confidence in finding new opportunities.
