Need a custom cut? A region, an industry, a role family, a time series — we build bespoke reports and datasets from this corpus.
The full per-posting dataset is not published; request it via contact.
Numbers are regenerated each month from a full-corpus pass (every crawled record, not a sample), an internal consistency audit, and URL liveness probes. The percentages on this page are the October 2026 edition (full pass, measured 2026-10-06); the index and live counts above are rebuilt by every nightly update, most recently 2026-11-11. “Still listed” is a listing-age measure from the source publish date, not a verification that a role is open; liveness is measured separately. Page regenerated 2026-11-11.
