Job openings climbed to 5.75 million in July, according to the JOLTS report, a measure of job openings and labor turnover in the U.S. Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters forecast 5.29 million job openings in July, up from 5.32 million in June.*
July's job openings were the highest since the series began in December 2000, beating the previous record of 5.4 million job openings, set in May.*
A CNBC review of industry-level data finds that the strongest paycheck raises are hitting sectors that are posting significant job growth. Even relatively low-paying industries like retail, trade, leisure and hospitality are seeing above-average growth in worker paychecks.**
