The Bureau of Labor(ed) Statistics seems to be saying there is more than one job opening in America for every unemployed person over 16 years old.

In April 2018 (preliminary data) according to the "Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey" there were 6,698,000 job openings in the US. The number of Unemployed Persons based on "Household Data" was 5,756,000 in May 2018.

I believe May 2018 will be the second month in a row when the BLS says job openings exceed the number of Unemployed Persons.

Of course there may be a mismatch between a particular unemployed person's skillset and place of residence compared with the vacant job duties and location.
