01 / 11THE DATA GAP

HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT

One job page shows an opening.Connected records show demand.

Collection is only the beginning. Useful job postings data needs a shared structure, repeated observation and clear provenance.

01TITLE ≠ ROLE

Every source speaks differently.

Titles, places, work types and dates arrive in thousands of different shapes.

02LAST SEEN —

Listings quietly disappear.

Repeated observation is what reveals whether a listing opened, changed or left the source.

03SOURCE / MANY

Employers stay fragmented.

Public hiring demand is scattered across individual career sites and local vacancy pages.

04RECORD → SIGNAL

The market remains invisible.

One job page shows an opening. Connected records show the shape of demand.

02 / 11THE VISIBILITY LAYER

ONE RECORD / FIVE STATES

The web does not share a schema.The dataset does.

Follow one vacancy from an isolated source page into a traceable record that can join the wider market view. Select a stage to see what changes and what is preserved.

A record should explain where it came from.

Structured job data is more useful when preserved source values, normalized fields and observation states remain visibly distinct.

Original reports will turn verified job market data into readable city and occupation stories. United States reports publish only after their coverage supports meaningful, unique analysis.

08 / 11METHODOLOGY

A VISIBLE PROVENANCE LEDGER

The method travels with the record.

A credible dataset explains collection, transformation and limitations alongside the output—not in a footnote after the sale.

Read the methodology
01Source

Surface hard-to-find public vacancies with the proprietary web index.

02Observe

Retain the source route and observation times needed to describe provenance and lifecycle.

03Normalize

Turn inconsistent titles, locations and attributes into comparable fields while preserving source values.

04Track

Use repeated observations to distinguish first seen, last seen, changed and no longer observed states.

05Disclose

Publish market scope, snapshot date, definitions and known limitations alongside the data.

10 / 11FAQ

DATA BUYER QUESTIONS

What to know before you evaluate the data.

Evaluate the records against clear coverage, field and delivery definitions before you buy.

01What is blue-collar job data?

Structured records describing skilled-trade, frontline, field-service, logistics, manufacturing and related vacancies. The product turns many fragmented sources into a consistent format for analysis and software products.

02Where do the job listings come from?

A proprietary web-indexing system surfaces hard-to-find public blue-collar vacancies. Published samples retain source and observation context.

03Is this a job posting API or a tool for publishing jobs?

It supplies job-posting data for reading and analysis. It is not an API for sending vacancies to job boards. Public self-service access is still being prepared; scoped API evaluations and bulk datasets can be discussed now.

04Which markets are covered?

The dated snapshot contains 21,533 Netherlands records and a separately scoped 1,030-record United States pilot. Public coverage statements include the observation date and scope definition.

05Can I inspect the fields before buying?

Yes. The evaluation package is designed to include normalized sample records, a field dictionary, a provenance example and a current coverage note.

06How are duplicate and inactive records handled?

The methodology retains source identity and repeated observations. Exact deduplication and lifecycle definitions are documented with each commercial dataset so the rules match the market and delivery.

THE SOURCE STRATEGY

The blue-collar jobs hidden in plain sight.

Most job datasets are strongest around major boards and standard ATS footprints. Blue Collar Job Data uses a purpose-built research and web-indexing system to surface hard-to-find public blue-collar job pages, especially from small and specialist employers.

79.9%

of 174 sampled Dutch metal employers with an own-site opening were found on neither Indeed nor Nationale Vacaturebank under the study rules.

Read the visibility studyOther providers may collect some of the same employer pages. The difference is focus: this overlooked source layer is our starting point, not a residual category inside a broad index.
