I collect data from "Who wants to be hired" threads. This month is one of the highest in years.

You'd think "past year" would include a full 12 months. This person has chosen a ~10 month period to hide the large drop off in early 2025 as you can see here: https://www.citadelsecurities.com/news-and-insights/2026-glo...

Job openings are down, but total jobs are up.
