That curve looks terrible and yet it confirms what I expected.
But yes, the job market has cooled dramatically.

It doesn't invalidate that it is the highest but it doesn't mean that it's almost 1:1.
It also doesn't mean that those people are out of a job. My company is mandating RTO 3 days a week, that's a good reason to look for a new position, while still being employed.
There are quite a lot of people hiring which have multiple job postings though. It doesn't invalidate that it is the highest but it doesn't mean that it's almost 1:1.

It does amuse me that we're still at more people hiring than looking for jobs. It's a stark contrast to other industries, where the power is normally in the hands of employers.
Another thing to consider is that we've had layoffs recently, i.e. people without jobs encouraged to find new jobs. In the past, wants-to-be-hired may be a little low because usually people don't want to be seen looking for a job while employed.
Btw does anyone ever get hired from the who wants to be hired thread?
