5 Burning Glass Technology gathers, cleans millions of job
postings every day, allowing NAE to use the data to analyze
open job trends by occupation, industry, skills desired, and
certifications required. While the vast majority of jobs are
captured in this data, occupations that typically do not
recruit online, such as agricultural, construction, or more
personal service-oriented occupations may not be as well
represented.
