JERSEY CITY, N.J., — Jersey Hired, the Garden State’s leading hyper-local job board and talent platform, announced today that it has reached a major milestone, surpassing 70,000 live job listings. This achievement solidifies the platform’s position as a dominant force in the local labor market, now accounting for one-third of all active job openings across the state of New Jersey.
This milestone comes amidst a period of explosive growth for the platform. Following a strategic expansion of its sourcing and recruitment solutions, Jersey Hired has seen unique site visits surge by 200% since November 2025. The influx of traffic underscores a shifting preference among New Jersey professionals and employers for specialized, local expertise over national, “one-size-fits-all” job boards.
Dominating the Local Labor Market
With New Jersey’s total job openings currently estimated at approximately 190,000, Jersey Hired’s 70,000 listings represent a significant concentration of the state’s economic opportunity. By focusing exclusively on the New Jersey ecosystem, from healthcare in Newark to logistics in Edison, the platform provides a high-density marketplace that connects talent with employers faster than ever before.
Leadership Insight
“Reaching 70,000 live listings isn’t just a number; it’s a reflection of the trust New Jersey’s business community has placed in us to solve their most pressing talent challenges,” said Richard Eib, Group Managing Director of Local Talent Group , the parent company of Jersey Hired.
“The 200% growth in site visits we’ve seen since November 2025 proves that both job seekers and employers are actively seeking a more focused, local alternative. While national platforms often struggle with the nuances of our state’s economy, we are doubling down on our commitment to provide a platform where every listing is relevant and every visit counts toward building a stronger New Jersey workforce.”
Key Performance Highlights:
- 70,000+ Live Listings: Representing nearly 1 in 3 available jobs in NJ.
- 200% Traffic Growth: Increase in unique site visits since November 2025.
