Deeper look
State × Occupation — which states one job’s EOIs named
State Mix takes a jurisdiction and shows its whole pool. This view turns that around: take one occupation and see how its EOIs distributed themselves across the jurisdictions.
What this view measures
Bars are jurisdictions, sized by how many submitted EOIs for your chosen occupation named each one, on the subclass and month you selected.
Reading the chart
Concentration is the thing to notice. An occupation whose EOIs sit almost entirely in one jurisdiction behaves differently from one spread evenly across five.
Small jurisdictions often fall under the publication threshold for a single occupation, so their bars may be missing rather than zero.
What the figure represents
Where applicants aim reflects course locations, existing residence, family and word of mouth about which programs have been open. None of that is a statement about nomination criteria.
In the dashboard
Pick one occupation and set the visa to 190 or 491. On 189 there is no jurisdiction recorded, so the view has nothing to split.
This view is behind sign in. Occupation Trends on 190 is open in the guest trial.
State × Occupation is behind sign in. Occupation Trends for 189 and 190 plus five occupations is open in the guest trial.
For applicants
Useful for seeing where your competition has gathered for your specific occupation, which is a sharper question than where competition gathers overall.
For migration professionals
Pairs naturally with the relevant state program page in the same meeting: this chart raises the question, the program page answers it.
Limits of this view
No nomination outcomes, no points dimension, no program criteria, and small jurisdictions are frequently suppressed.
Common questions
Should I nominate the state with the fewest EOIs?
Not on this basis. You can only nominate a jurisdiction whose program you meet, and this chart knows nothing about those criteria.
