How to read this chart · view counts

Each side is an independent set of observed employer moves, not the same people followed through three stages. Ribbon widths compare move counts within that side. Internal moves are not included.

Same role means a change of employer while keeping the same role. Counts are moves, not distinct people, promotions, or your chances of making a particular move.

Pages refresh weekly (or daily for the top-50 most-posted roles). An adjusted trend is not shown because comparable posting coverage is insufficient.
