---

”Online advertised vacancies showed a small drop of 15,500 to 5,044,600 in July, according to The Conference Board Help Wanted OnLine® (HWOL) Data Series…. The June Supply/Demand rate stands at 1.9 unemployed for each advertised vacancy with a total of 4.4 million more unemployed workers than the number of advertised vacancies.... “’Labor demand continues to be at historically high levels with employer demand running at about 5 million ads each month,’ said Dr. Gad Levanon, Director of Macroeconomics and Labor Markets at The Conference Board. “’hile the average monthly increases have become more modest since early 2013, the overall trend has helped lower unemployment levels and reduced the U.S. Supply/Demand rate from a peak of 5.2 in June 2009 to 1.9 in June 2014.’” See the complete report at this link: The Conference Board
