People are searching for work, but employers still lead the way
Similarweb a website traffic company, released a report showcasing the impact, across industries, of COVID-19 recovery in both the U.S. and U.K.. which shows activity in the job market.
“Our proprietary digital intelligence platform shows clear indicator signals of the recovery,” said Greg Malen, VP of Solutions at Similarweb. “Across key sectors of the economy — travel, entertainment and shopping — we are starting to see a return to normal patterns, often above pre-COVID-19 levels.”
Using the time period of January-May as a comparative baseline for 2020 and 2021, key recovery trends include:
Monthly traffic for the top five job sites in both the U.S. and U.K. increased by 20.2% and 97.5% YoY, respectively. But, through an analysis of separate URLs for employers and employees as a proxy for job supply vs. demand, it is evident that employers are returning to job sites at a faster rate than job seekers.
In the U.S., job employer traffic has had positive YoY growth since the first week in January, and hit its most recent peak the second week of April at +299.1%.

BlackDevHub Launches
BlackDevHub.io offers Black and African American people in tech and hiring organizations who want to hire them a decentralized platform to build community, share job opportunities and create new applications in a free space limited only by its users’ ambitions.
BlackDevHub.io exists to solve a real problem plaguing the tech industry: lack of diversity. Despite historic interest in racial equity and inclusion at all levels of society, Black representation in tech remains low. At leading tech companies like Facebook, Google, Microsoft and Twitter, Black people make up just 3–6% of employees. And it’s not for lack of desire — Black people are interested in tech, and tech companies are interested in hiring them. They just don’t always know how to find each other.
“I created BlackDevHub.io to level the playing field and bridge the gap between Black talent and employers. BlackDevHub.io splits the power evenly between Black talent and the companies who want to hire them, providing opportunity-seekers a growth-minded community and hiring managers a secure, streamlined platform to list positions and connect with incredible talent they may have otherwise missed. We can’t wait to see what our users accomplish on BlackDevHub.io.”
BlackDevHub.io also makes it easier for organizations committed to diversity to showcase their efforts to the world. With its blockchain-verified Diversity Index, BlackDevHub.io ranks Fortune 500 companies for diversity in tech hires. And with corporate profile verification, community members can easily identify and connect with organizations committed to promoting greater inclusion.
