# Base Jobs Data
Hiring data provides insights into a company's continuously refreshed and historical hiring activities. The data goes back to August 2020, giving you an up-to-date picture of a company's strategic moves as they happen.
Base Jobs Data is designed for use in **investment, lead generation, market research, and HR intelligence**.
| **Generate global business opportunities** | Understand buying intent from the skill sets companies are actively hiring for right now – freshness matters when signals change week to week. |
| ------------------------------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Capture company traction** | Filter companies that are entering the next growth phase by expanding their talent pool into specific areas. |
| **Gain strategic competitive insights** | Analyze historical data to predict where and how the company will soon expand its presence and operations. |
| **Job postings discovery** | Continuous 24/7 job discovery, where all live postings are rechecked daily, keeping the `application_active` and `deleted` fields accurate and reducing stale signals. |
