PROBLEM
The listing is real. The job is not.
SOLUTION
Fake Jobs are job postings that exist in the listing layer of the hiring ecosystem without a corresponding position existing in the hiring layer of reality. They are posted to collect resumes, satisfy legal requirements, gauge market salary expectations, maintain the appearance of growth, keep the ATS fed, or for reasons that have never been formally documented and will not be. The listing has a salary range. The listing has five to seven required qualifications. The listing has been open for four months. The listing will remain open. The Knocked Off has applied. The resume cleared the ATS. The phone screen went well. The hiring manager was enthusiastic. There is no hiring manager. The role was eliminated before the listing went up. The listing is still up. The listing will always be up. Fake Jobs are not a glitch in the system. They are a feature of the system being used correctly by someone who is not you.
