Georgia employers opened 204 new roles this week, up from 186 the week before, on the employer career sites Career App crawls. New postings across every tracked state fell over the same stretch, from 9,309 to 9,024. Georgia's 9.7% gain ran against that 3.1% decline.

How many jobs opened in Georgia this week?

Georgia added 204 new roles, 18 more than the 186 it added the prior week. That is 2.3% of the 9,024 new roles counted across all states this week. The week-over-week comparison counts only boards already being tracked before the comparison started, so a newly added employer board cannot inflate the change.

How does Georgia's change compare with other states this week?

Georgia posted the second-largest percentage gain among the twelve states with the most new roles, behind North Carolina at 35.0%. Six of the twelve rose and six fell.

Plenty of other states had openings this week. This is the list of the biggest twelve, not a full count of where the roles are.

What does the rest of the week look like?

There are 60,974 open listings today from 722 employers hiring. New roles came in at 9,024 and closures at 11,003, though a closure shows up about a week after the employer takes the role down.

What pay are employers posting?

Engineering Manager carries the highest posted median at $280,000, from 185 listings. These are the pay ranges employers published on their listings, annualized to USD, and they cover all tracked boards rather than one state.

The Machine Learning Engineer, Financial Analyst and Sales Manager medians each rest on fewer than 100 listings.

More of the daily movement is on the US hiring trends, day by day page, and open roles are on the Job search.

Correction, October 19, 2026: The pay medians in this post were calculated from the top of each posted pay range rather than its midpoint, which is the basis our occupation pages use. Midpoint medians are typically 10% to 17% lower than the figures shown here.
