Overview & Methodology
A world of insights can be gathered
from LinkedIn’s 300 million members
– the world’s largest professional
network. These talent pools are
defined by the industry a member is in.
LinkedIn Recruiter activity and member
characteristics are used to determine
supply and demand for talent. A higher
demand index means that the average
professional in a region is interacting
with recruiters more frequently than
peers in other regions. Data about
job consideration comes from our
semiannual talent drivers survey of over
100,000 members.
