The Hidden Signal in Job Openings Quality vs Quantity

from The Job Market Podcast with Fexingo: Hiring Trends, Unemployment, and Labor Market Updates · host Fexingo

Job openings hit 7.6 million in April, up sharply from 6.9 million. But Lucas and Luna dig into the quality behind that number: which sectors are adding roles, which are just refilling attrition, and how the mix of open jobs tells a different story than the headline. They look at recent JOLTS data, compare it to hiring rates, and discuss what a rising share of vacancies in low-wage industries means for job seekers. Plus a quick note on how listener support keeps the podcast ad-free. If you're job hunting or just watching the labor market, this episode gives you one concrete signal to watch: not just how many jobs are open, but what kind. #JobMarket #JOLTS #JobOpenings #HiringTrends #LaborMarket #Careers #Employment #WageGrowth #EconomicData #April2026 #JobSearch #Recruiting #LaborEconomics #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #CareerAdvice #HiddenSignal #Podcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
