Our newly updated job posts chart gives you the information you need to easily check the heat of the market for your roles, by showing the number of job postings over time. Job postings are then further broken down by pay type (daily, hourly and annually) for more relevant insights.

What you can see on the X-axis

Each point along the X-axis corresponds to the date range specified in the search, allowing you to view the salary change over time and identify any trends.

What you can see on the Y-axis

Each point on the Y-axis displays the number of total jobs advertised for the corresponding period on the X-axis.

How we calculate the trend line

The job post trend line visually represents the percentage (%) change in the number of jobs posted over a period of time; whether they are increasing, decreasing or remaining stable. This helps you to identify longer term trends vs. market anomalies, making it easier to back up your pay decisions with data.

Easily toggle between your data views

When you filter your search by โ€˜Allโ€™ pay types, the job posts chart will display more than one pay type. Use the pay type toggles above the chart to only see the types that matter to you.

Drill down into the detail

Hover over any specific time period on the x-axis to see the number of job posts advertised for that time period โ€“ broken down further by the pay types included in your original search (hourly, daily, annual and unknown pay).
