Key takeaway

Switching jobs is timing, not bravery — the index tells you when the board is moving enough to justify a pivot.

DocuResume publishes the Switch Job Index each cycle: a 0–100 composite of how favorable the live job board is for changing roles. This week scores 83 — a hot switch market — built from four signals we can measure from employer feeds, not sentiment surveys.

The formula weights posting volume momentum (30%), title churn (25%), remote mobility (25%), and skill rotation (20%). Only markets with active listings feed the index; quiet regions are excluded entirely.

This week's reading

Volume momentum maxed out: open roles jumped sharply versus the prior window (+704% between rollups — partly a ingest catch-up, but directionally bullish). Title churn and skill rotation also scored 100 as Software Engineer gained share and collaboration skills rotated into more postings.

Action

Remote mobility held at 33% fully remote — enough lane width for geographic switches, but not a remote-only market. Hybrid remains thin at 1%, so candidates should still tailor for hub language when needed.

How to use the index

Action

60–100 (active to hot): prioritize adjacent titles gaining share — repurpose your CV lane, run match score on each shortlist, and apply with tailored bullets rather than volume.

Action

40–59 (steady): focus on fit over motion. The board is not rewarding spray-and-pray; deepen pipeline quality and salary context before moving.

Action

Below 40 (quiet): keep networking and skills current, but defer broad pivots until volume and title churn recover.

DocuResume move

Match score answers whether you fit a role; the Switch Job Index answers whether now is the right week to invest in a pivot. Save targets to your pipeline, repurpose track before you tailor, and compare scores across corporate, technical, and early-career lanes from one dossier.

The live index updates on the Research page whenever daily rollups refresh from ingest.
