The gap between job openings and available workers in the U.S. is the biggest it’s ever been, according to The Wall Street Journal. April data from the Labor Department show 1.652 million more jobs than unemployed people, a potential drag on growth as companies search for, but fail to find, the help they need. The month also saw the most hires on record, according to CNBC, with 5.9 million taking new positions. “Quits” also rose, with 3.48 million voluntarily leaving their jobs — a sign of worker confidence in employment prospects.
