Interesting. Do you scrape LinkedIn or do they offer some form of API to gather number of jobs published in the last X hours/days/etc. ?

With LinkedIn it's a bit of both. The number of new jobs (last 24 hours) is collected by scraping but we do zoom into countries to make sure the data is correct.

Other job boards it's mostly scraping.
