Markets
Hiring plans are built per metro.
Capacity can be planned at scale. Talent supply is local. Each market below has its own bench depth, competing employers, comp benchmark and realistic hiring sequence, and treating them the same is how a build misses turnover.
Why market-level hiring plans matter
The same role is a different search in Ashburn than it is in New Albany: one is a counteroffer problem, the other is a conversion-and-relocation problem. We map local employers, commute radius, adjacent industries and comp evidence per metro, then build the sequence backward from your turnover date.
