ANKARA (AA) - Job openings in the US were broadly stable at 11.3 million in February, according to figures released by the Labor Department on Tuesday.
The figure was in line with market expectations.
The rate of job openings also remained unchanged at 7%, it said.
Some 4.4 million people left their jobs in February while the quit rate stood at 2.9%.
The survey measures job vacancies by collecting data from employers about employment, job openings, hiring, and separations.
The Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey, or JOLTS, considers job openings as all positions that are open or not filled on the last business day of the month that the survey is done.
