Identify fake job postings before applying

Stop wasting nights on ghost jobs that were never meant to hire.

Ghost Job Detector analyzes job descriptions and public hiring history to score whether a role is likely real, stale, or an evergreen pipeline post.

70% noise signal

Recent labor-market studies estimate that many listings remain live without active intent to fill. Applicants end up feeding resume pipelines instead of real requisitions.

Time saved weekly

Use risk scoring before writing a cover letter. Most users cut low-quality applications and redirect effort to warm outreach and targeted roles.

Coach-ready workflow

Career coaches can review client shortlists faster with a transparent signal trail, not a black box score.

The Problem

Job boards reward visibility, not hiring certainty. Companies leave postings up to build candidate pools, benchmark compensation, or signal growth.

Job seekers pay the cost: resume customization, follow-up outreach, and interview prep for roles that never had budget approval.

The Solution

Ghost Job Detector scores each posting using explainable pattern detection: evergreen language, unrealistic requirement mixes, and missing decision-critical details.

It then layers in company hiring footprint checks from public ATS sources so you can validate whether current demand supports the posting.

FAQ

How does Ghost Job Detector decide if a posting is fake?

Each analysis combines weighted language signals from the posting and external hiring footprint signals from public ATS endpoints and careers pages. You get both a score and explainable evidence.

Can I trust the score alone?

Treat the score as a decision aid, not a final verdict. The tool highlights where to verify headcount, posting recency, and hiring-manager ownership before investing your time.
