The number of new vacancies in the United States in June reached a record level in the history of the country – the country is experiencing an unprecedented labor shortage. According to the published data of the Ministry of Labor, by the last day of the month the number of vacancies increased by 590 thousand and reached 10.1 million.

Labor demand broke the May record of 9.5 million job vacancies and exceeded economists’ expectations. As the economy has recovered, the labor market is actively looking for new employees in sectors such as leisure and hospitality.
