Amidst all the changes happening in America at the moment, I suppose “ghost jobs” aren’t on the top of some people’s concerns, but for anyone needing to find a new place to work, the increased existence of ghost jobs is something to bear in mind.
CNBC has a nice 12-minute piece from last August that walks through what now can account for four out of every 10 job listings.
What I like about the newspiece is that since it’s long enough to delve into some of the motivations for posting ghost job listing, the job market (naturally, five months old, but not five years old), and some ways to spot potential ghost jobs.
