Exploring Global Employment Through Data
The global employment landscape is constantly evolving.
Companies expand internationally, new opportunities emerge across industries, and the distribution of jobs changes over time.
JobsByCountry Research is our initiative to examine these developments using information collected through our global job discovery platform.
Our goal is to turn structured job listings into useful insights for job seekers, researchers, career professionals and journalists.
Our Research Focus
Global Jobs Index
An initiative to examine the distribution of active job listings across countries, cities, companies and professional categories.
The Global Jobs Index is intended to help readers understand patterns within the employment opportunities currently tracked by JobsByCountry.
Remote Jobs by Country
Research exploring the geographic distribution of remote work opportunities where working arrangements can be identified from available job information.
The analysis will distinguish between explicitly identified remote positions and listings where working arrangements are not specified.
Top Hiring Companies
Analysis of employers with the largest number of active listings within the JobsByCountry dataset during a defined reporting period.
These findings will describe hiring activity visible through our sources rather than the entire recruitment activity of each employer.
International Hiring Trends
Research examining changes in the composition of tracked employment opportunities over time.
Potential areas include geographic distribution, occupational categories and companies advertising positions across multiple countries.
Our Research Principles
Our research follows four principles.
Transparency
We aim to explain where the data comes from and how findings are calculated.
Defined Scope
Research findings are limited to the employment opportunities represented in the underlying dataset.
Reproducibility
Reports should identify their measurement definitions, reporting period and relevant methodology.
Responsible Interpretation
Changes in source coverage, data collection or employer participation may influence observed trends.
We aim to distinguish changes within our dataset from broader labor-market developments.
Research Publications
Our research reports will be published here as they become available.
Each quantitative report will aim to include its reporting period, dataset size, methodology, key findings and relevant limitations.
Until a report is published, no findings or market-wide conclusions should be inferred from this page.
