Demand is running at 4,897 applications a day

Across the platform, 4,72,574 roles are live and candidates submitted 50,291 applications in the past seven days — roughly 4,897 every day. 14,794 of those roles were posted in the last week alone, by 9,457 companies hiring across 898 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 898 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, Finance and Machine Learning account for the largest share of live roles. Behind them sits a candidate pool of 26,273 registered profiles, 17,577 of whom joined in the last 30 days.
