Healthcare jobs overwhelmingly dominated the full list, which also includes roles such as sign language interpreter, HVAC technician, attorney, software engineer, field engineer, project manager, business analyst, electrical foreman and more.

"The labor market overall has been in this low-hire, stagnant space for the last year," Laura Ullrich, North America research director for the Indeed Hiring Lab, said in a statement.
