Job postings are down in tech hubs and up in Boise, Wichita and Reno
Indeed's postings count sits 32.4% below its February 2020 level in Seattle and 36.3% above it in Jackson, Mississippi, as hiring drifts away from tech coasts. Only 37.8% of postings we read list pay, and after prices are counted, San Jose's typical wage stretches furthest.
