Daily snapshots since September 2025 are stored as captured and never rewritten. - ### Coded to the standards you use Occupations to SOC and industries to NAICS, so it joins to what you already report on. What every record carries ## Provenance on every posting. Each posting arrives with where we found it, when it was posted, and when we last saw it, so you can check a number before you defend it. - A source link and capture date on every record - Removals recorded the day they happen - Pay where the employer discloses it What you get daily ## Employer hiring signals, every day.
