It's not you. It's ghost jobs.

— Clarify Capital Research, 2022
Ghost jobs are positions that companies post online with no intention of actually hiring anyone. They exist because...
HR needs to prove they tried to fill the role externally before giving it to an internal candidate.
Companies collect resumes for future openings that may never come. Your CV sits in a database forever.
Posting jobs makes the company look like it's growing — great for investors, terrible for you.
The internal candidate was chosen before the job was even posted. The listing is just a formality.
The average job seeker wastes 5.5 hours per week applying to jobs that don't exist.

Our AI analyzes every job description across three research-backed dimensions.
Is the job description specific about responsibilities and requirements? Or is it full of vague buzzwords that say nothing?
Based on NLP readability analysis
Are the requirements actually possible? Do the years of experience match the technology's age? Is this one job or five?
Based on labor market intelligence
Does the company reveal salary, team structure, and hiring process? Or are they hiding everything behind 'competitive benefits'?
Based on information asymmetry theory
These three scores combine with 15+ additional signals to produce the Ghost Score — your probability radar for fake job postings.
