-2% job volume over 2026-09-02 to 2026-09-09. That shift matters because Hiring temperature, skill movers, remote mix, and pay transparency in one pulse - so applicants know whether today is a push day or a prep day.

Signal this week
Skill mover: GO (-373 postings vs the prior window). Title in motion: Product Manager (-40).
Translate movers into one tailor pass - add GO only when grounded in your experience, then re-score. Rising titles without a matching summary usually waste the first screen.
Hot boards favor early applications - save high-match roles before volume peaks.
