That's the thing: 1500 job listings does not mean 1500 jobs exist.
Half are companies that realized posting fake listings works as free marketing on LinkedIn. It's a real strategy: people start subscribing to their newsletter because LinkedIn offers that by default when you apply, and when somebody looks the company up, it creates the illusion they're booming and expanding.
Then of the remaining half, a half of that are fake listings that are actually AI companies that get you to record five minutes of audio and take a picture during your "application" and under the fine print you're allowing them to use your voice and resell it. Not joking.
Then you do have the remainder which are the real jobs. Of that remainder, more than half will be evaluated by an AI which may or may not take your skills into consideration, understand the formatting of your resume or even fully appreciate what the position entails.
Welcome to 2025, don't you love it? You need to answer that you love it by the way because we are monitoring your social media accounts and we have three cameras in your street and we don't like answers that bring the spirit down.
You’re forgetting the portion that are real jobs, but they already know they’re just changing an existing employee’s job title, but HR makes them post a job for it anyway to seem fair.
Or they're hiring a relative but have to go through the motions of pretending to do the candidate search process.
Don't forget H1Bs where they have to 'prove' that there are no suitable domestic candidates first
Good point.
Dont forget the H1B ones. To hire (at half salary) a foreigner, by law they need to prove that the job cannot be done by a US employee. So they post a fake opening, with those "entry level 15 years experience in afield that existed 10 years" to justify the hiring
Oh look! Living on a couple of euros of passive income looks really enticing all of a sudden!
