Jobspiq open data: India's tech job market

Free, citable data from Jobspiq, an AI job search platform for technology professionals in India.

Each folder in data/ is a dated snapshot of the datasets published at jobspiq.in/data. The website shows live figures that change every day; the files here never change once committed, so you can cite an exact version. The same snapshots are on GitHub at jobspiq/jobspiq-public.

Datasets

Config	File	What it contains	Window
skills_demand	skills-demand-india.csv	Active tech job postings in India that mention each skill, and each skill's share of all tech postings	Postings seen in the 30 days before the snapshot date
tech_salaries_stated	tech-salaries-stated-india.csv	Quartiles of salaries that employers state in tech job postings (no estimates), by experience, role family and skill, with the number of stated salaries behind every row	Postings seen in the 90 days before the snapshot date

Each config combines every snapshot; filter on the as_of column to pick one date. Column definitions are in data/README.md.

from datasets import load_dataset

skills = load_dataset("jaydeepgio/Jobspiq", "skills_demand", split="train")
salaries = load_dataset("jaydeepgio/Jobspiq", "tech_salaries_stated", split="train")

The data covers active technology job postings located in India, or remote and open to candidates in India. It contains aggregate numbers only: no job descriptions, no copied postings and no personal data.

Method and limits

• Postings are collected from LinkedIn, Naukri, remote job boards and employer career pages, and duplicates are merged. A job counts once per skill.
• Salaries are only those stated in the posting. Most postings state none, so every salary row shows its sample size, and groups with fewer than 25 stated salaries are left out. Employers who publish pay are not a random sample of all employers.
• These are job postings, not hires, and they do not measure total employment.

Longer method notes for Jobspiq's published research are in methods/.
