India Shows Growth in Data Scientist Postings
India added job postings for Data Scientists while other countries saw a fall.
By Marcus Bell, Mogi Research · Oct 14, 2026
India added job postings for Data Scientists, with a ten percent rise from 39 to 43 postings. This growth occurred while the United Kingdom saw an eighty five percent fall in postings, from sixty to nine. Canada also experienced a forty percent fall, from twenty five to fifteen postings.
The United States saw a forty three percent fall in Data Scientist postings, from two hundred and two to one hundred and sixteen. France saw a ten percent fall, from ten to nine postings.
The rise in India may be due to increased demand for data analysis talent. It could also reflect a seasonal hiring pattern or a shift in how companies are posting their needs. The fall in other countries may be linked to companies adjusting their hiring strategies or a temporary slowdown in recruitment.
