March Job Opening Highest in 4 Years!
The Labor Department said Tuesday that employers advertised 3.74 million job openings in March, the highest since July 2008, just before the financial crisis erupted.
Tuesday's report also showed another good sign: more people quit their jobs in March. The rising number of people quitting suggests workers are finding more opportunities in the job market.
The unemployment rate has fallen a full percentage point since August to 8.1% in April — lowest level since January 2009. The average worker's hourly pay rose to $23.28.
USCIS reported Monday that 45,700 cab-subject H1B Visa petitions have been filed since April 1, another 4-year high number.
