Ghost Job Report

We flag job listings that may not represent real hiring needs. Learn how we detect ghost jobs →

• 5,461 listings flagged
• 73,759 openings checked
• 7% flag rate — below the 20–30% commonly estimated for major boards

Risk breakdown

• 5,195 high risk
• 266 medium risk

How we detect them

• Posting duration — a listing still open past 90 days is a strong signal on its own.
• Repost cycles — the same role closed and relisted again and again.
• Missing salary or hiring-timeline information.
• Generic contact addresses instead of a named hiring contact.
• Sourcing from channels known for resume collection rather than hiring.
• Company hiring patterns that do not match the volume of roles posted.

Each signal contributes points toward a ghost score. We publish the flag rather than deleting the listing — the detection is a judgement call, and you should be able to see it and disagree.
