Which industries dominate overseas hiring?

Report as of 2026-06-10 PT · Source: Metix AI

Among industry tags on active postings outside China, Manufacturing is 17.6%, Hospitals and Health Care is 17.1%, and Professional Services is 15.0%. The three tag shares are 49.8% together. Like the function mix, these are tag shares. One posting can carry more than one industry tag, so 49.8% is not a count of jobs inside the 6,167,276 postings. As of 2026-06-10. Overseas job structure, not a job-market forecast.

Why it matters

A recruiter or TA lead can brief this cut before opening a search, and a VC can use it to test whether the bench matches the story. On this page, Manufacturing is 17.6%, and Hospitals and Health Care is 17.1%. Those figures are the published visible sample, not official headcount.
