---

Online advertised vacancies rose 83,100 to 5,445,000 in May, according to The Conference Board Help Wanted OnLine® (HWOL) Data Series. The April Supply/Demand rate stands at 1.59 unemployed for each advertised vacancy with a total of 3.2 million more unemployed workers than the number of advertised vacancies. The number of unemployed was 8.5 million in April. “Following a very strong January and February, the growth in online vacancies has been basically flat over the past three months,” said Gad Levanon, Managing Director, Macroeconomic and Labor Market Research. “Still, even with the recent three-month pause, the 2015 growth rate has significantly outpaced the 2014 growth rate during the same time period.” Please visit this link to read the full report: ConferenceBoard NOTE: This report is provided with the understanding that the publisher is not engaged in providing legal, financial, accounting or other professional advice.
