## How this ranking works

A company appears once it has at least 8 live openings in Chicago. Companies whose most recent posting anywhere is older than 90 days are excluded, so dormant boards cannot hold a position. The Remote Index band describes how the employer hires across its whole organisation, not how its Chicago roles are structured, and never affects the order.

## What the Chicago numbers show

### How remote is hiring in Chicago?

4.1% of live Chicago roles are advertised as remote — 72 of 1,746 openings. That is well above the 3% roles-weighted average across the 26 US cities ReqHunt tracks, so an employer advertising a Chicago address is overwhelmingly asking for attendance at it. A further 3 Chicago roles are advertised as hybrid.

### Is Chicago hiring concentrated?

The five largest employers hold 21.5% of all live Chicago openings, and the median ranked employer has 14 open Chicago roles. Chicago is less top-heavy than the typical tracked city, where the top five hold 44.2%: hiring is spread across many mid-sized boards rather than concentrated in a few.

### Which industries are hiring in Chicago?

The industries hiring hardest in Chicago are Financial Services & Investment (338 roles, 19.4%), Professional & IT Services (279 roles, 16%), Fintech & Payments (161 roles, 9.2%).

### What level are Chicago jobs?

54.6% of live Chicago titles read as senior, managerial, director or executive level, and the single largest named band is Manager with 493 roles. Levels are derived from job titles, so a title that states no level counts as unspecified rather than being guessed at.

### Is hiring in Chicago growing or shrinking?

Hiring in Chicago grew +1.3% over the last seven days: 188 roles were added and 166 were removed across the 90 employers ranked on this page, a net +22 against 1,724 open Chicago roles a week ago. 19 of those employers posted a Chicago role this week after posting none the week before. BarkleyOKRP added the most, 14 new Chicago openings in seven days. 1 Chicago role appeared in the last 24 hours alone. Additions and removals are counted from the postings themselves — a role leaves the count when the employer takes it off their own board, not when it is filled.

Data date: most recent posting among the ranked companies is 6 September 2026.
