How we count
- Sources: employer career pages and job boards that list roles in India, checked every day.
- A role counts as open if it was seen in the last 4 days.
- Percentages and pay ranges are hidden until at least 10 roles back them. Counts are always shown.
- Pay uses annual INR figures from postings that list pay. Most do not.
- Entry-level means the job title says entry-level, junior or intern.
- Remote or hybrid counts only roles whose posting says so.
- A weekly trend line appears beside the open-roles number once two weeks of data are collected.
- Skills come from the list CyBe tracks, so they rank the tracked skills, not every word in every posting.
