Workers had reason for euphoria two to three years ago: The job market was red-hot and, by many metrics, historically strong.
However, the labor market has slowed gradually.
Workers are now having a harder time finding jobs and the labor market, while still solid, could be in trouble if it continues to cool, economists said.
While that rate is "consistent with a strong labor market," its steady rise is the "troubling factor," Nick Bunker, economic research director for North America at the Indeed Hiring Lab, wrote in early July.
