Direct Hiring Demand Monitor

# Labor demand, read every morning, straight from employers.

A daily report and data feed on open jobs at 280,000 employers, collected from their own career sites, applicant tracking systems and public employment services. Same-store changes with stated uncertainty, occupation, metro and ticker signals, and a published track record against BLS.

- 5M+ live postings
- 280K+ employers
- 860+ tickers
- Daily at 07:00 ET

Why it's different

## A signal you can read, not a count that drifts.

Raw posting counts move whenever coverage moves. The monitor holds its panel steady, states its uncertainty and grades its own coverage.

- ### Same-store, not raw counts Employers join the panel after 14 days. New boards, dead boards and catch-up fetches move the level, never the index or the rankings.
- ### Uncertainty you can see The headline carries a 95% interval, and a move that could be noise is reported as “changed little”. Most private labor indicators publish no uncertainty at all.
- ### Coverage you can audit Every edition is graded A, B or C by how completely employer boards were fetched, and both first prints and revisions are published.

What's in each edition

## From the headline to the ticker, every morning.

Each edition opens with a seasonally adjusted 28-day headline and its interval, then breaks demand down by occupation, place and listed company.

- Headline core change: unadjusted over 7 days, seasonally adjusted over 28 days
- 355 detailed occupations and 23 major groups, ranked against the market
- All US states, 850+ metro areas and 150+ countries
- A ticker screen with organic change, weeks sustained and coverage flags
- Posted pay against BLS OEWS medians

The feed

## The same numbers, as files you can load.

Every edition ships as data as well as a report, stamped and defined so a day's files stack onto the last.

- 13 data files every day plus a data dictionary, with JSON and the report
- Every row is stamped with its edition, so files stack into point-in-time history
- A data dictionary defines every column, and the schema is versioned

Track record

## Scored in public.

Every edition estimates the next BLS JOLTS job openings print before it is released. The estimate is logged in a file that ships with the edition, then scored against the first print once BLS publishes.

- Logged before every JOLTS release
- Scored against the BLS first print
- No interval shown until six months are scored

Who it's for

## For teams that price, plan or study labor demand.

One edition serves the desk, the research team and the policy office.

- ### Macro and rates A daily read on labor demand between JOLTS releases.
- ### Equity long/short Ticker-level hiring with organic change, weeks sustained and coverage flags.
- ### Quant research Edition-stamped files that stack into point-in-time history.
- ### Sell-side and buy-side economists A same-store index with a stated interval and a public JOLTS track record.
- ### Corporate strategy Occupation and metro demand, ranked against the market.
- ### Policy and workforce research Demand by state, metro and occupation, with posted pay against OEWS.

How it compares

## Daily, with its uncertainty and its revisions.

BLS JOLTS is the benchmark, but it arrives about five weeks after the month. Job-board aggregates arrive sooner, with reposts and coverage changes mixed into the trend.

- Freshness **Official statistics (BLS JOLTS)**: Monthly, about 5 weeks after the month **Job-board aggregates**: Weekly to monthly **Metaintro**: Daily at 07:00 ET
- Source **Official statistics (BLS JOLTS)**: Employer survey **Job-board aggregates**: Job boards and reposts **Metaintro**: Employer career sites and ATS, deduplicated by posting URL
- Uncertainty **Official statistics (BLS JOLTS)**: Published standard errors **Job-board aggregates**: Rarely shown **Metaintro**: 95% interval on every headline
- Coverage changes **Official statistics (BLS JOLTS)**: Survey reweighting **Job-board aggregates**: Mixed into the trend **Metaintro**: Flagged and kept out of the index
- Revisions **Official statistics (BLS JOLTS)**: Scheduled **Job-board aggregates**: Revised silently **Metaintro**: First print and revisions published
