One way of measuring demand is to look at how long the average job search lasts. In that context Stanford MBA's often take a rather long time between jobs as in 12-18 months is not uncommon.
Various euphemisms exist, like taking a break or the ever popular consulting. But, getting a job in school or being poached while employed is the happy path. Get off that path and it can be very hard to get back.
PS: I don't think demand changes the average much, but it's often outliers that stand up in the first place. So, I do think demand is meaningful as it reduces the burden of ethical behavior which impacts people at the edge.
