Reading this edition

Postings in 9 role families mention Statistics in this edition.

In 1 of the 8 role families with a page of their own, at least one posting in five mentions Statistics: Data Scientist 22.5%.

Statistics is more concentrated in Data Scientist postings (22.5%) than across all core AI postings (3.5%): at least twice the overall share.

How the readings are made: "more concentrated than overall" means that in a role family with a page of its own, at least 10 postings mention the skill and its share is at least 2 times its share of all core AI postings; "common" means at least 20% of a role's postings mention it. They describe the postings open in this edition, not a trend.
