Demand for Analyst roles

New Analyst postings at the employers we follow are up 23% over the last 6 weeks compared with the 6 before.

Weekly new Analyst postings at the same employers, from the week of August 17 to the week of November 2. The fewest in a week was 993, the most 1,515, and the latest week had 1,515.

Each bar is one week of new postings. The darkest bars are the last 6 weeks.

Counted from the hiring pages we’ve followed for at least five weeks, so employers we add don’t look like growth. Updated weekly.

About the role

We file this job under Analyst, by the work the posting describes.

Analysts answer business questions with data. They pull numbers with SQL, build reports and dashboards, and explain what changed and why to the people making decisions.

Most postings ask for SQL, spreadsheets, a dashboard tool such as Tableau or Power BI, and clear writing.

Unlike a data scientist, an analyst mostly explains what happened rather than building models that predict what will.
