Competitor Hiring by Occupation
InfoTrie's competitor hiring dataset shows, for each listed US company, how many postings it has open on its own career sites, by SOC 2018 occupation group, how many of them are new over the last 30 and 7 days, and where it ranks on new postings among the companies of its industry group (NAICS). It is built from one day's job postings, keyed by SEC CIK and ticker.

Frequently asked questions
Why are the 30-day and 7-day counts empty?
Until the collection history covers a window, every posting would look new in it. The counts and ranks stay empty rather than wrong, and history_from says when the history starts.
Does it name individuals?
No. It counts companies' own public postings; it names companies, never recruiters or candidates.
