What the San Jose numbers show

How remote is hiring in San Jose?

1.1% of live San Jose roles are advertised as remote — 11 of 1,012 openings. That is below the 3% roles-weighted average across the 26 US cities ReqHunt tracks, so an employer advertising a San Jose address is overwhelmingly asking for attendance at it. A further 2 San Jose roles are advertised as hybrid.

Is San Jose hiring concentrated?

The five largest employers hold 47.2% of all live San Jose openings, and the median ranked employer has 22 open San Jose roles. San Jose is more top-heavy than the typical tracked city, where the top five hold 44.2%: a handful of boards set the pace and a candidate who ignores them misses most of the market.

Which industries are hiring in San Jose?

The industries hiring hardest in San Jose are Semiconductors & Electronics (199 roles, 19.7%), Mobility & Automotive (150 roles, 14.8%), Construction & Built Environment (90 roles, 8.9%).

What level are San Jose jobs?

59.2% of live San Jose titles read as senior, managerial, director or executive level, and the single largest named band is Senior with 243 roles. Levels are derived from job titles, so a title that states no level counts as unspecified rather than being guessed at.

Is San Jose hiring speeding up?

866 of the 1,012 live San Jose roles first appeared in the last 30 days — 85.6% of the market turned over inside a month.

Is hiring in San Jose growing or shrinking?

Hiring in San Jose held flat (−0.6%) over the last seven days: 94 roles were added and 100 were removed across the 29 employers ranked on this page, a net −6 against 1,018 open San Jose roles a week ago. 6 of those employers posted a San Jose role this week after posting none the week before. Samsung Semiconductor added the most, 15 new San Jose openings in seven days. 16 San Jose roles 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.

How this ranking works

A company appears here once it has at least 8 live openings in San Jose. Order is set by the number of those San Jose openings alone — nothing else moves a company up or down. Companies whose most recent posting anywhere is older than 90 days are excluded, so a dormant board cannot hold a position. The Remote Index shown beside each name describes how that employer hires across its whole organisation, not how its San Jose roles are structured, so a high band does not mean the San Jose jobs themselves are remote. See the remote ranking.
