Where the Jobs Are in Florida

The Florida Department of Economic Opportunity tracks job postings to determine what companies are hiring, what kind of positions they need to fill, and how many people are looking for jobs.

Major occupational groups with the most online ads in September were sales and related occupations; healthcare practitioners and technical occupations; office and administrative support occupations; and management occupations.

These reports are produced monthly. To follow the most current job posting activity by city and occupational group, visit www.floridajobs.org/labor-market-information/products-and-services/help-wanted-online.
