A Link Between Job Search Keyword and Hiring Trends?

Posted by Garrett O'Brien on 10-Jan-2012 in career management, featured post, jobs, recruiting | 0 comments

The weekly employment stats are announced every Thursday and I don’t know about you but many times I’m not sure of where we are going, what is our hiring trend, as well as where we have been, what keywords are being used for job searches. I believe we do, but not in reality. The simplest cure to this? How about a couple of graphs?

For HRIS, HRMS, HCM, and HR Tech jobs, we have the following trends for keyword searches since May 2010. Basically, providing the trend of how many are looking using any one or combination of the 4 keywords…

Keyword Trends

Hris, Hrms, Hcm, Hr Tech trends

Hris jobs | HRMS jobs | HCM jobs | Hr Tech jobs

Since May 2010, the following has occurred globally:

HRIS jobs increased 55%
HRMS jobs increased 38%
HCMjobs decreased 46%
HR Tech jobs decreased 7%

All data provided by SimplyHired.com, a search engine for jobs.

Now, let’s take the same database and let’s look at trends based upon specific systems (which would include more than HRIS modules). For now, we are using the major contenders, let us know if you want us to add someone else by clicking here…

Keyword Trends by Systems

Adp, Ceridian, Kronos, Oracle, Peoplesoft, Sap, Workday trends

Since November 2009, we see the following has occurred:

ADP jobs increased 13.222%
Ceridian jobs increased 238.737%
Kronos jobs increased 2.409%
Oracle jobs increased 2.484%
PeopleSoft jobs increased 3.677%
Sap jobs increased 3.601%
Workday jobs increased 4.618%

Hiring Trends

Our affiliate, SimplyHired, has now made it possible to follow hiring trends, thereby supplementing the keyword trends to what type of jobs are finding people being hired. These trends will enable you to view hiring trends in real-time. With this interactive interface, you have the latest local and national employment trends sourced from SimplyHired.com’s database of more than five million U.S. job postings — as well as monthly employment data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) Employment Situation and ADP National Employment reports.

While the BLS and ADP reports provide data on positions filled, SimplyHired.com’s U.S. Employment Trends report provides the only forward-looking data that actually predicts hiring based on current job openings each month; it is the leading indicator of the health of the job market. By taking the hiring trends online, you are able to discover job posting trends nationally, by metro area, by industry and by occupation, in addition to the degree of job competition in each metro area. Dating back to October 2010, this range of data provides you with a clearer picture of the number of jobs available and the competition they will face when applying. You can access graphs of various employment trends, which may be printed or downloaded for ongoing reference.

“The most successful job seekers know that knowledge is power, especially in today’s job search. The ability to sift through more than five million job postings to find specific industry and geographical job trends is an essential resource for these job seekers — and it is a great example of how job seekers can leverage technology in their search,” said Gautam Godhwani, Co-Founder and CEO of SimplyHired.com. “How competitive is the job market where you live? Which companies are doing the most hiring right now? These are questions that can now be answered with the click of a mouse.”
