Demand is running at 5,953 applications a day

Across the platform, 2,96,179 roles are live and candidates submitted 19,109 applications in the past seven days — roughly 5,953 every day. 4,953 of those roles were posted in the last week alone, by 8,858 companies hiring across 867 cities.

The concentration is in Bengaluru, Karnataka

Bengaluru, Karnataka, Pune, Maharashtra, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, Mumbai, Maharashtra and Hyderabad, Telangana lead on live openings, but the tail matters: demand now spans 867 cities, which is why tier-2 sourcing has stopped being optional for volume hiring.

Function-level demand

Software Development, Data Analyst, Web Development, Data Science, Digital Marketing and Human Resources account for the largest share of live roles. Behind them sits a candidate pool of 16,096 registered profiles, 10,939 of whom joined in the last 30 days.

What this means if you are hiring right now

  • Roles in Bengaluru, Karnataka face the most competition for the same candidates — post early in the week and respond within 48 hours.

  • 0.5 applications per opening on average — screening capacity, not sourcing, is the real bottleneck for most employers.
