US Job Openings Rise to Six-Month High on Business Services

US job openings rose to a six-month high in November, boosted by a jump in business services, and layoffs were little changed, adding to evidence of a solid labor market.

Available positions increased to 8.1 million from an upwardly revised 7.83 million in October, the Bureau of Labor Statistics Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey, known as JOLTS, showed Tuesday. The median estimate in a Bloomberg survey of economists called for 7.74 million openings.
