Paste the role and the company. We look for the posting on the employer's own site and on the applicant tracking systems employers actually run, then show you what we found and what we didn't. Evidence, not a verdict — you decide.
A listing advertised while no hiring is happening: the role is filled, frozen, or was never real. Employers post them to build a resume pipeline, to look like they are growing, or because nobody removed a stale listing.
Collecting applications for a role nobody is filling, to build a candidate database or feed an outreach list. It usually looks like a vague listing spread widely across aggregators with no matching posting on any employer-run system.
No. Agency-exclusive searches, confidential replacements for someone who hasn't been told yet, and executive hires are routinely absent from public careers pages by design. Absence is a question to ask the recruiter, not an answer.
Whether the employer carries the role themselves — their careers page, or an ATS they run like Greenhouse, Lever, Workday or Ashby. A posting echoed across many boards with no employer-hosted original is the shape of a resume farm.
