Ghost jobs

A ghost job is a listing that may not represent a real hiring need — posted to collect resumes, gauge market interest, or keep a permanent pipeline warm. We flag them rather than quietly dropping them, so you can see the call and disagree with it. Read the ghost job report →

Talent pools

The same lifecycle signals also find the opposite of a ghost job: companies that keep hiring for one role month after month, so there is no deadline to miss. Repetition alone would just be ghost-job spam, so a role only counts when its repeats are spread over a month or more. See the talent pools →
