By Ethan Walsh, Mogi Research · Oct 23, 2026
Which states saw the biggest growth in job postings in the last 7 days? Alabama saw job postings rise by nine percent. This change added two hundred job postings, from one thousand nine hundred ninety nine to two thousand one hundred seventy five.
Puerto Rico saw job postings rise by twenty two percent. Mississippi saw job postings rise by seven percent. North Carolina saw job postings rise by six percent. Illinois saw job postings rise by five percent.
This rise in Alabama job postings may be due to increased hiring activity from employers like Domino's, CHS, and Leidos. It could also reflect a broader seasonal demand for roles such as Software Engineer, Full Stack Engineer, and Product Manager. The data reflects postings from October 17 to October 23.
