    As we face the big jobs numbers on Friday, one source - the internet - gives us some color on what to expect. The ratio of job openings to job searchers in the most populous metropolitan areas is improving, according to job-listing site Indeed.com. Ten cities had a 1:1 ratio in May, up from just four cities a year ago. What’s more, wage growth has grown for seven-straight quarters, according to PayScale, a wage tracking website. Still, with over 12.5M still unemployed the labor market is still a far cry from healthy.

    or could it be more people have given up looking for a job and are no longer searching?
