Japan Jobs/applications ratio
According to the series, the ratio of active job vacancies to applicants is calculated as a rate of the number of job offers (the total of carried forward job offers from the previous month and new ones) to the number of people who are searching for employment and are registered at public employment security offices ("Hello Work") throughout the country. It reflects the number of employment offers received by a single job seeker. The ratio is calculated by dividing the number of monthly current job openings by the number of monthly active applications.
A higher than expected figure should be seen as positive (bullish) for the JPY while a lower than expected figure should be seen as negative (bearish) for the JPY.
