    How we ranked the companies

    What counts as demand

    The number of different candidates who, in the last 90 days, saved one of the company’s roles or told Jack they’d like to work there. Each candidate counts once per company, whichever way they showed interest. Mentions only count a candidate’s own messages to Jack that express interest in working at the company, such as wanting to join, targeting it in their search, applying or preparing for an interview. Saying they use a company’s product or tools doesn’t count.

    Total demand, not per role

    The ranking reflects total interest in each company. It isn’t adjusted for how many roles a company has open, so startups hiring for more roles have more chances to attract interest.

    Every company is counted the same way

    The ranking is based only on candidate interest. It doesn’t depend on whether a company hires with Jill.

    Startups only

    This ranking is a startups list. Frontier AI labs such as Anthropic and OpenAI are left out, so the focus stays on startups and scale-ups.

    Where the summaries come from

    “How candidates see them” and “What draws candidates” are summarised from candidates’ conversations with Jack that mention each company, then anonymised. They describe what candidates find appealing. They aren’t endorsements from Jack & Jill.
