Demand is running at 3,851 applications a day

Across the platform, 5,23,779 roles are live and candidates submitted 7,357 applications in the past seven days — roughly 3,851 every day. 17,760 of those roles were posted in the last week alone, by 10,207 companies hiring across 902 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 902 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 Finance account for the largest share of live roles. Behind them sits a candidate pool of 33,200 registered profiles, 22,333 of whom joined in the last 30 days.
