Around 2.6% of Indeed users switch to a new job each month, with most changing to a new occupational category.
High-mobility occupations require emphasis on attraction and onboarding, while low-mobility jobs benefit from internal development and retention strategies.
Job-to-job moves play a significant role in reallocating talent based on market demand and mobility barriers within job categories.
Data from over 35 million Indeed profiles showed job switching rates vary, with loading and stocking jobs having high switch rates, while media and communication roles are more stable.
Lower-paying fields like retail and food preparation exhibit higher job switching rates, while higher-paying fields show lower rates.
Nursing and software development roles are less open to job switchers from other occupations compared to fields like hospitality, tourism, retail, and loading and stocking.
