Methodology of Analysis

The job listings counted are those that were active as of the first Monday of each month, specifically for October 2025, where 554,001 positions were identified.

Insights on Job Categories

Through sophisticated analytics, HRog Chart classifies job types using its proprietary categorization, rather than relying on generic classifications found in job postings. This allows for a more nuanced analysis of job types and average wages across various sectors.
