About this data

Number of job advertisements by region and by each of the 47 prefectures. Job advertisements placed in 15 major job media (print and online) in Japan, monthly since August 2024 on the association's current methodology, as the weekly average of the month. An advertisement can list several occupations, so the occupation total differs from the employment-type and regional totals. Source: Association of Job Information of Japan (Zenkyukyo).
