How to read this

Where these numbers come from

The SkillDrift job index collects live job postings and reads the skills each one asks for. This page counts the postings in the sales role group within the health tech industry, and shows the share that name each skill. Skills appear as employers write them, so close variants such as Excel and MS Excel can both appear, because a posting may use either. The page is refreshed from the index, and the date above shows the last read.
