Brenda Cohen+FollowJob Openings Just Hit a 5-Month High!The job market just threw us a curveball—October saw job openings spike to their highest since May, even though hiring has slowed and folks are quitting less.

Why? AI is taking over some desk jobs, and companies are tightening their belts after over-hiring during COVID. If you’re working in tech, retail, or services, it’s smart to brush up on your tech skills, stash away a six-month emergency fund, and keep your LinkedIn fresh—just in case. #Business #JobMarket #Layoffs00Share
