The labor market is gradually entering a new phase of development. Companies are again more actively publishing vacancies, but the recovery is uneven: some industries are increasing hiring, while others continue to reduce it.

According to the PMC research center, in May 2026, 7,306 vacancies were posted on the jobs.ge platform. This is 17.2% more than in April and 0.2% higher than the figure for the same period last year.

The largest increase in activity was recorded in the sales and procurement segment – the number of vacancies here increased by 21.8% over the month. This indicates an expansion of trade areas and a strengthening of companies' commercial divisions.

Stable demand also remains in the field of finance and statistics, where the number of offers increased by 12%. At the same time, the IT sector shows negative dynamics: the number of vacancies in programming and information technology decreased by 12.6% compared to last year. Companies are increasingly preferring to optimize current teams instead of actively expanding staff.

The most noticeable annual growth was shown by the administration and management areas – plus 9.3%, which reflects the strengthening of management structures in business.

In total, from March to May 2026, employers posted 20,327 vacancies, which is 1.5% more than a year earlier. The main volume came from sales and procurement (5,373 vacancies), finance (4,302), and management (4,677).
