Frequently Asked Questions
Where does this data come from?
These archived aggregates were compiled from public Australian job advertisements, with duplicate source ads removed during aggregation.
How often is it updated?
Figures are frozen; scheduled source collection is no longer running. Displayed period labels are maintained separately and do not establish when the ads were collected. Check a current job board before treating an employer as actively hiring.
How do recruitment agencies use this?
Hiring surges are business development signals — when a company suddenly posts more roles, it usually needs help filling them. Kolvera tracks which Australian companies are hiring and finds the verified decision-maker contacts behind the ads.
Methodology: Aggregated from public job advertisements across major Australian job boards. Duplicates removed. Counts are historical, not exhaustive.
