Welcome to the Job Seek blog

We monitor the career pages of thousands of companies directly — not what they post to LinkedIn or Indeed, but each company's own applicant-tracking system (ATS). That means we see roles before the big aggregators do, and we see what gets quietly pulled when budgets shift. When we disagree with a published report, we'll state its argument fairly before contrasting our numbers against it.

The posts here will mostly do one of two things:

• Cross-check industry reports. The Stack Overflow Developer Survey says Rust is the most-loved language; how many Rust roles per company, per month, actually opened last year? The World Economic Forum projects AI/ML role growth; how does the projection compare to actual posting volume across the companies we track?
• Answer questions the dataset is uniquely positioned to answer. What happens to hiring 90 days after an announced layoff? Which companies that ran "AI engineer" roles in 2025 still have them open in 2026? Which ATS platforms get jobs filled fastest?

Methodology lives next to every post — scope, time window, inclusion criteria, exclusions. Charts come from data we collect ourselves; the underlying queries ship with each post.

The first proper post is up: Following one job posting from a careers page to your feed — a walkthrough of how the data actually gets here, written for the curious rather than the procurement-form-filling team.

For browsing, the explore page is the search interface, and curated watchlists are how we group employers under topical lenses. A few we maintain:
