LinkUp Forecast: February JOLTS report by the BLS

LinkUp’s JOLTS forecast for February is 7.72 million open jobs, marking almost no change in job openings from January to February.

Each BLS survey report of monthly job openings and labor turnover is released a full month after-the-fact. Our job data consistently marks a strong correlation to the BLS numbers, with the significant advantage of a month’s lead time to the official release.

We’ll continue to monitor and report on the evolving state of the labor economy. In the meantime, for an in depth overview of the job market, key concepts and labor market metrics, check out our Jobs 101 blog series.
