roaz answers one question: where is your field actually hiring right now? This page is the honest version of how we do that — what the numbers mean, how we sort jobs into fields, and the things we deliberately don't show because we'd rather leave a gap than guess. If a number here helps you trust the ones on the rest of the site, it did its job.
~1.1M live vacancies · ~90k companies tracked (~60k hiring right now) · 22 hiring systems · re-checked against employers' systems every 48h · 23 fields across many countries · as of 2026-07-14
What roaz shows
Every vacancy on roaz is drawn from a snapshot we re-check against employers' own systems at least every 48 hours. If a role comes down, it drops off roaz within about a day — so you'll hit far fewer of the “this job is no longer available” dead ends that plague the big aggregators.
Direct to the employer. Every “apply” link goes straight to the employer's own application system — the real posting, not a copy. We filter out the staffing agencies, recruiters, and job-board reposts we can identify.
Tracked across 22 hiring systems (the ATS platforms companies post on). We read the hiring systems companies actually post on, so you see the source rather than a copy of a copy.
23 professional fields across many countries. From clinical care and finance to design and software — ranked by live demand, country by country (coverage varies by field — see below), so you can see where the work is instead of guessing across dozens of places at once.
How we count
When a field page says “4,000 live vacancies in Germany,” here is exactly what's in that number. A role is counted only if it is:
Live — the employer's system still served it the last time we checked, within 48 hours.
Direct — posted by the employer, not a staffing agency, recruiter, or job board we can identify. Agency, recruiter, and demo/sandbox listings are filtered out.
In a real field — classified into one of our 23 professional fields, not the leftover “other” catch-all.
Not every company is hiring right now — and we say so. We track ~90k companies across their hiring systems, live or quiet; ~60k of them have a role open right now — those are the ones whose vacancies you actually see. When we talk about coverage we mean companies we watch, not companies guaranteed to be hiring this minute.
The count you see on a field page is the same count the search inside your account can list — we compute them through one gate, so the headline never promises more than the results deliver. We say live and tracked, never “posted this month” — see the next section for why that distinction matters.
How we classify
Jobs are sorted into fields by reading the job title with a set of rules, plus a second, more precise layer of tech specialties (backend, AI/ML, DevOps, security, and so on) for software roles.
We want to be plain about this: classification is approximate. It's rule-based and best-effort — a title like “Analyst” or “Consultant” can genuinely belong to several fields. We continuously measure it against a hand-curated gold set of real job titles and keep improving it; the tech-specialty layer is the more precise of the two. Think of the fields as navigation, not a verdict — a fast way to get near the right pile of jobs, not a claim that every single title is filed perfectly.
What we don't guess
Plenty of job sites fill gaps with estimates. We'd rather show nothing than show you a number we can't stand behind. So, on purpose, roaz does not show:
Salaries. Most postings don't state one honestly and consistently; a made-up range is worse than none.
Seniority levels. We don't reliably infer “junior vs senior” from a title yet, so we don't label it.
Company reviews or ratings. That's someone else's data and someone else's opinion — we won't pass off a rating we didn't earn.
Trends and history — “jobs posted this month,” growth over time. This is the big one. Our timestamps reflect when we first indexed a role, not when the employer truly posted it, so any “trend” would partly measure our own crawl schedule. We'll only ever tell you the current live level — that one we can stand behind.
Coverage caveats
A ranking is only as honest as its coverage, so here is where ours has edges — and what we do about each:
We rank by country so we never fake city-level precision. Only about a third of roles carry a city, so country is our unit — and a country's rank partly reflects how well our sources cover it, not only real demand. Roughly two-thirds to nine-tenths of live roles carry a country tag depending on the field (as of 2026-07-14); where a slice is known to be thin, that page carries a coverage note.
“Remote” is a share of the roles that state a workplace mode — not a share of all roles. Many postings simply don't say, and we don't invent an answer for them. On thin slices we hide the percentage entirely rather than dress up noise as a signal.
Regions don't add up. We rank by country and won't sum overlapping regions into a bigger-looking number.
Public-sector gaps we flag rather than paper over. Some large government and public-health employers don't post through the systems we track, so a few fields and countries will undercount; where we know a slice is affected, we say so on that page.
A short close-lag we keep small. A handful of listings can linger briefly if the employer's own system keeps serving a role after it's filled. The 48-hour re-check keeps this small, but it isn't zero.
Visa specifics we point you to the source for. roaz shows you where the demand is, not whether you personally qualify to work there. Narrow it to the two or three countries actually hiring your field, then check the official government immigration route for each of them — that beats guessing across dozens at once.
How we improve
The point of being this transparent is that it gives us something to improve against:
The gold set. We measure classification against a curated set of real titles and ratchet it forward — publishing the fields creates healthy pressure to keep raising that bar.
Your own words. When you describe what you do in the three-question wizard, that free text (with personal details stripped) shows us where our mapping falls short — the most common “we couldn't place this” titles go straight onto the fix list. Using roaz quietly makes it better.
