Real-time Data Help Wanted Online (HWOL) The HWOL data series “measures the number of new first-time online jobs and jobs reposted from the previous month on more than 1,200 major internet job boards and smaller job boards that serve niche markets and smaller geographic areas.” The rationale for the use of this data set is that an increase in the number of jobs being posted online is an indication of increased demand for workers. It is important to note that while the HWOL data series is one of the most comprehensive counts of online job postings available, not every job that is available and or filled is done so through an internet job board. For this reason, increases in HWOL posting counts may indicate an increase in demand. 31
