Role mix, country totals, remote vs onsite share, and salary ranges per currency. 5 min read Updated July 2026 By [Arash Abdollahi](https://mortit.com/about), Founder Published by [MORT](https://mortit.com/) Updated July 2026 TL;DR **In the week of 6-13 Jul 2026, MORT tracked 104,219 new job listings** across 10 countries - a rebound of +5.2% from the July 4 holiday-week dip (99,035). US listings bounced back to 51,371 (+10.4% week-on-week), a new high in the seven-week tracking window. Software Engineering held at #1 for a seventh consecutive week (13.6%). Canada also rebounded +11.5% week-on-week, confirming the July 4 dip was a holiday seasonal effect rather than a market trend. ## This week's overview (6-13 Jul 2026) | Metric | This week | Baseline (17-24 Jun) | | --- | --- | --- | | New listings (7 days) | **104,219** | 102,184 | | Remote-only listings (full feed) | 23,855 (22.9%) | 22,280 (21.8%) | | Top hiring country | US (51,371 postings) | US (45,986 postings) | | Top role category | Software Engineering (13.6%) | Business & Operations (10.2%) | | Onsite / Hybrid / Remote (sample) | 67.4% / 13.8% / 18.8% | 66% / 17% / 17% | | Salary disclosed (sample) | 22% of postings | 35% of postings | | UK listings | 7,477 | 10,207 | Data from MORT's ATS feed, 7-day window 6-13 Jul 2026. Role and remote-policy percentages are from a 1,000-job sample. Country totals and remote-only count are from the full feed. This week's sample contains test data ("Examplecorpsandbox": 175/1k, 17.5% of sample) - sample-level role, salary, and remote figures are affected; full-feed country data is unaffected. This week's angle post examines whether July is structurally a bad month to search for a job - or whether the July 4 dip was a short-lived holiday effect: [Is July a Bad Time to Look for a Job? What the 2026 Hiring Data Says](https://mortit.com/blog/is-july-a-bad-time-to-look-for-a-job-2026) ## Top role categories | Role category | This week (sample) | Baseline (17-24 Jun) | | --- | --- | --- | | Software Engineering | **13.6%** | 9.7% | | Sales & Account Management | 8.7% | 7.6% | | Hospitality & Retail | 8.2% | 4.2% | | Business & Operations | 7.3% | 10.2% | | Finance, Legal & Compliance | 5.2% | 5.1% | | Skilled Trades & Field Roles | 4.3% | 6.5% | | Marketing | 4.2% | 3.1% | | Healthcare | 4.1% | 9.9% | | Data | 2.2% | n/a | | Engineering (Non-Software) | 1.9% | 4.8% | From a 1,000-job sample of the 7-day feed. This week's sample contains test data ("Examplecorpsandbox": 175/1k) that distorts category percentages. Software Engineering has held as #1 across all seven independent sample draws (ranging 11.2-13.6%), the only category consistent across all company compositions - its dominance is the reliable signal. All other category percentages should be treated with caution this run. ## Country totals (7-day) | Country | This week | Prior week | | --- | --- | --- | | United States | **51,371** | 46,516 | | United Kingdom | 7,477 | 7,108 | | Germany | 4,570 | 4,678 | | France | 4,209 | 4,180 | | Canada | 3,437 | 3,083 | | India | 2,848 | 2,795 | | Netherlands | 2,185 | 2,405 | | Australia | 1,451 | 1,579 | | Spain | 1,233 | 1,475 | | Ireland | 659 | 577 | Full-feed counts (not a sample). US bounced +10.4% week-on-week to 51,371 - a new tracking-window high, reversing the July 4 holiday-week dip (46,516). Canada +11.5% week-on-week (3,083 to 3,437), following the same North American holiday-week pattern. Netherlands reversed its multi-week uptrend (-9.1% WoW to 2,185). UK slight recovery (+5.2%) but still -26.8% vs the mid-June baseline (10,207). ## Salary ranges (per currency) | Currency | Jobs disclosing salary | Median posted min | Median posted max | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | USD | 185 | $100,000 | $126,130 | | EUR | 20 | €4,300 | €5,000 | From the 1,000-job sample. Salary was disclosed in 22% of this week's sample. USD figures (n=185) are elevated vs recent runs and should be treated with caution: the sample contains test data (Examplecorpsandbox, 175/1k) with potentially arbitrary salary values, plus a tech-heavy legitimate composition (Brightvisiontechnologies, SWE at 13.6%). EUR n=20 (exactly at the reporting threshold); values appear monthly by European employer convention - not annualised. GBP (n=8) and other currencies are below the n=20 threshold; omitted this run. Currencies are never blended. ## This week's angle post Each weekly run adds one focused analysis. This week's post uses MORT's ATS feed data alongside BLS and JOLTS figures to answer whether July is a genuinely bad time to job search - or whether the July 4 dip was a one-week seasonal blip: - [Is July a Bad Time to Look for a Job? What the 2026 Hiring Data Says](https://mortit.com/blog/is-july-a-bad-time-to-look-for-a-job-2026) \- US listings fell 9.1% in the July 4 week then bounced back 10.4% to a new high (51,371). Canada followed the same pattern (+11.5%). July as a month is not structurally slow; the holiday week is the specific window to watch. ### Previous angle posts - [Is US Hiring Slowing Down in 2026?](https://mortit.com/blog/is-us-hiring-slowing-down-2026) \- US fell from 51,164 to 46,516 (-9.1% WoW) in the July 4 week, while BLS reported only 57,000 June payrolls vs 115,000 expected.

The data comes from MORT's direct feed of company ATS platforms - Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, SmartRecruiters, Recruitee, Pinpoint, JazzHR, and others - covering listings posted directly on company career sites. It is not a scrape of job board aggregators. Each report covers the 7-day window ending on the publication date. Role categories, remote policy, employment type, and salary figures are drawn from a 1,000-job sample of that window. Country totals and full-feed remote counts are from the full feed for the same window. Salary medians are reported per currency only. Blending USD, GBP, and EUR into a single figure would be meaningless. ## Frequently asked questions ### How many jobs are posted every week? In the week of 6-13 Jul 2026, MORT's ATS-indexed feed tracked 104,219 new listings across 10 monitored countries - a rebound of +5.2% from the July 4 holiday-week dip (99,035). Software Engineering remained the top role category at 13.6% of the 1,000-job sample, its seventh consecutive week at #1, up from 9.7% (third place) at baseline. The US accounted for 51,371 listings (64.7% of the 10-country total), a new high in the seven-week tracking window. ### What is MORT's job market data based on? MORT aggregates postings directly from company ATS platforms - Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, SmartRecruiters, Pinpoint, JazzHR, and others. The data covers listings posted on company career sites, not scraped from job board aggregators. Figures represent the 7-day window preceding each report date. ### Which countries have the most job openings right now? In the week of 6-13 Jul 2026, the US had 51,371 new listings - up 10.4% week-on-week from the July 4 holiday-week dip (46,516), and a new high in the seven-week tracking window. The UK had 7,477 (down 26.8% from the mid-June baseline of 10,207). Canada had 3,437 (up 11.5% from the holiday week, mirroring the US rebound). Germany had 4,570. France had 4,209. The [BLS June 2026 Employment Situation](https://www.bls.gov/news.release/archives/empsit_07022026.htm) showed 57,000 payrolls added vs 115,000 expected, though the shortfall was concentrated in leisure and hospitality, not professional hiring. ### How much remote work is available in the job market right now? MORT's full-feed remote-only count for 6-13 Jul 2026 is 23,855 (22.9% of all new listings) - up 8.2% from the holiday-week dip (22,041) and back above the mid-June baseline (22,280). Sample-based remote figures vary significantly between draws based on sample company composition; the full-feed count is the more stable indicator. Remote availability is higher in this data than in broader market surveys because MORT indexes primarily tech-adjacent and professional services companies. ## Find roles in the categories that are hiring MORT is an AI job-matching platform that scans thousands of company career pages, scores every job 0-100% for compatibility with your skills and experience, and generates a tailored resume for each application.
