How MisuJob gets its numbers

Where the data comes from

We collect public job postings from employer career sites and job boards, remove duplicates, and review each posting’s country, role, skills and published salary before any figure is published.

No published number uses CVs, applications, accounts or any other personal data.

What “a posting reviewed” means

One public job advertisement that passed review: it is readable, it is assigned to a country by the primary hiring location it states (remote eligibility is shown separately and never turns a posting into another country), it has a title, and it carries skills and a salary when the employer wrote them.

• Not unique vacancies. The same job can be advertised on several sites; we remove the copies we can detect, not every one.
• Not a national total. We do not see every posting in a country, so a count says how many postings we reviewed, never how many jobs exist.
• Not additive. Counts on different pages measure different things and cannot be summed.

Countries

Daily country figures cover Germany, Spain, France and the United Kingdom. United States figures come from a reviewed sample that updates less often. Other countries appear only in the monthly skill reports, as their share of the postings reviewed.

Salaries

We only use salaries the employer wrote in the posting. We never estimate one. About one posting in four states a salary, so every salary figure shows how many postings it is based on.

To compare offers we convert each one to an annual, EUR-equivalent amount: a daily rate × 220 days, an hourly rate × 1,760 hours, a monthly amount × 12, and the midpoint of a range. “EUR-equivalent” means exactly that: it is not local purchasing power and not a promise about any individual offer.

• A median needs at least 30 matching salaries.
• The middle half (p25–p75) needs at least 50.
• Below those counts we show no salary number.

When we show a trend — and when we don’t

• A statement about demand needs at least 100 postings reviewed for that role, skill or country.
• A rising or falling arrow needs at least 50 postings in the latest complete month and six comparable months before it.

The number of postings we can review changes from month to month for reasons that have nothing to do with the market, such as how many sites we could read that month. When two months are not comparable we say “not enough comparable data to show whether this is rising or falling” instead of drawing an arrow.

How often the figures update

• Country figures update daily; each one shows the time it was taken.
• Skill reports are published monthly, on the first of the month, for the previous month.
• Career Radar compares a CV against a monthly evidence release; the current release is July 2026.

Career Radar and your CV

Your CV is read in your browser. It is not uploaded, and it is discarded once your result is built. The result is a comparison between what your CV says and the postings we reviewed, not an assessment of you.
