How it is compiled
- We calculate the share of each specialism and region in all the public vacancies opened in our recruitment system over the last 12 months (the last four complete quarters), by opening date. We don’t include internal vacancies or drafts.
- Changes are measured against the previous 12 months or, while there is not yet enough data, against the previous quarter. We only publish percentages.
- The specialism comes from the job title and the region from its location. Vacancies without a recognisable location go under “Other”.
- It is updated every time we publish the website.
