Original: 28% of job postings on company career sites have been open over 90 days
A new analysis finds that 28% of job postings on company career sites have remained open for more than 90 days, raising fresh concerns about so-called ghost jobs — listings companies leave up despite no intention to fill them soon. Commenters argue the figure reflects employers keeping talent pipelines warm, inflating apparent growth, or simply neglecting stale listings, and say it makes job hunting harder and more demoralising for applicants.
Why now: Growing frustration among job seekers about ghost postings and hiring practices keeps this kind of data highly debated.
Rank over time, top of the chart is #1. 44 snapshots from 1 d ago to 9 min ago.
