Expectations are for the report to show that there were 4.7 million job openings as of the end of July, up slightly from the 4.67 million openings shown as of the end of June.

June's report marked a 13-year high for job openings.

The JOLTS report has become a more closely watched economic indicator after Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen said it was one of her preferred economic indicators.

We'll be back with the live number when it hits.
