Methodology
Hopin continuously collects public job listings from LinkedIn, company career sites and major job boards, focused on fresher and entry-level roles in India. Listings are deduplicated across sources and pass an AI scam and authenticity check before they are counted. All figures are live snapshots of currently open listings, not cumulative totals, so counts can fall as jobs close. City and role buckets are assigned automatically from listing text; listings that cannot be classified stay in the totals but are excluded from those tables. The report and the JSON dataset are refreshed daily.
