      Info: Created with Plotly, jobs scraped from job boards for a project I’m working on right now called Hirebase. Category data is from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, and the formula used for weighting was a simple total no. of jobs divided by % representation on a national level according to BLS (i.e. 1000 government jobs divided by 13.5% representation would be higher than 2000 retail jobs divided by 50% representation).

      Data is ONLY online formal posting data, so informal/gig work such as Uber or DoorDash is not represented and likely leads to some distortion.

      Nifty. Unfortunately, the differences between some colors are too subtle for my eyes: the greens of Educational Services and Professional…services; and the purples of Financial Activities and Retail…Trade.

      Data CAN be beautiful by changing colors to be more different but this is off to a great start
