What the numbers say

As of April 2026, The New York Times sits in the 40th hiring percentile, around the middle of the market. The 12-month change is +1 pt since April 2025 — roughly flat.

Looking at people moving in and out over the 36 months to March 2026, The New York Times's balance of joins versus leaves is better than at 42% of US employers in the panel. That is close to the typical US employer. We rank this balance inside the month rather than showing raw net flow, because newer résumés reveal joins with a delay and raw counts understate recent hiring everywhere.

Within Communication Services, the median employer in our US panel is in the 40th hiring percentile, so The New York Times is level with its sector peers this month.

About 22% of the career moves we observe at The New York Times are in tech roles.

These figures come from 522 job changes in public résumé histories over a rolling 36-month window, not from job postings. Postings show intent; résumé histories show who actually joined. The data is updated monthly and currently runs through April 2026.
