Where these numbers come from

  • Source. Every hour we read the public careers pages of the companies we follow that use Greenhouse, Lever or Ashby to post jobs. A job counts as open until it is taken down from the company's page.
  • What is not included. LinkedIn, JobStreet, Indeed, recruitment agencies, and companies that use other hiring systems. These numbers are a sample of companies that hire directly, and they lean towards technology companies. They are not the whole job market.
  • Places. A job counts for Australia when its location names a city or region there. Remote jobs count only where the posting names a country.
  • Titles. Levels such as “Senior”, “Staff” or “II” are removed, so “Senior Data Engineer” and “Data Engineer” count together.
