Labor Market Overview

The Labor Market Overview module provides real-time analytics and insights about Worker Profiles and Jobs Posted within a region. This article will walk you through what each metric and chart entails.

Country, State, City: From the dropdowns, select the particular country, state and city you wish to search across.

The state/province name is shown in square brackets next to the city name, e.g. The city name will be displayed as-is if there is no associated state/province for a city. Cities are now ordered alphabetically for more straightforward navigation.

Filtering Example

Worker Profiles/Job Posted: Two default key metrics exist. The time-series line graph underneath would change accordingly by clicking on each metric. You can choose between WEEK, MONTH, QUARTER, and YEAR to view the selected metric for different periods. (It defaults by YEAR)

Worker Profiles: The number of job seeker profiles identified in this region over the past 7 calendar days.

This number reflected is based on individuals who have indicated that they are ‘Open for Work’ or based on their behaviour such as uploading a resume or editing pertinent details. 

Jobs Posted: The number of new jobs added in this region over the past 7 calendar days.

The POSITIONS chart indicates the most prevalent jobs held by most individuals in the region or the most prevalent jobs posted in the region. (This depends on your selection at the top)
