(Worthy News) – The number of job openings in the United States tumbled below 10 million in February, the lowest level in nearly two years.

The largest decreases in job openings were in professional and business services; healthcare and social assistance; and transportation, warehousing, and utilities. [ Source: Washington Examiner (Read More…) ]
