job availability
Hireable role count
Job availability refers to the presence of open positions in the labor market—how many jobs exist and can be filled.
High job availability means employers are hiring and opportunities are plentiful: Job availability in tech has declined since the layoffs.
The term appears in economic reporting and job searches, often as shorthand for employment prospects in a particular field or region.
