[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I thought this was the best job market in recent history?  Like no unemployment and so many jobs?

Yea, no it’s awful. There have been so many layoffs in my industry the past few years so there’s a lot of us the market but not enough jobs. So, many companies know that they can  significantly low ball candidates because a lot of us are on the market. You may be able to find a job but good luck finding one that pays you your worth. I have 12 years of experience in my field and most places want to pay around 60k-75k. Within 30 minutes a remote job will have over a 100 applicants (LinkedIn tells you). As far as the market having so many jobs, a lot of the companies will post fake jobs for 3 reasons: 1) Companies often want to promote or place an internal candidate the role. To cover for potential discrimination laws that could be invoked they put up a job posting and pretend like they are also looking for external candidates. 2)Data farming 3)Makes the company look like they’re in growth mode when they’re actually not. So technically companies can and do report these jobs to the government despite the jobs not actually existing, thus, inflating and skewing the reporting on the job market.

I’m in the recruiting industry. [/quote]

Sorry to hijack but what industry? [/quote]
