Job openings in the United States continued to expand last month, despite efforts by the Federal Reserve to slow the economy down and lower record high inflation with massive interest rate hikes.

There were 10.7 million job openings at the end of September, a rise from August’s reading of 10.1 million, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
