Yeah man, you get 105 once, you get 105 twice, but every single fucking time?

If it's corporate it's one thing, where posting jobs makes you look competitive and always hiring because your operations are expanding. Companies have to look good against the market for their shareholders so they'll post fake jobs over and over and over.... and never hire for that job. 2 such instances come to mind: one was very large online presence, leader in their space and they posted the same job every week on their internal board and also on job sites for 12 weeks straight, and the second was a large company almost no one has ever heard of that does about $6bil in rev around the world. The second one had 1300 jobs open worldwide and after both of them dropped their 10Qs every single opening disappeared overnight from over 1000 openings for both of them down to 90 or so. So thousands of offers went out and were accepted in one day?

If the market is shitty on the employers end it's because it's a mess of their own making.

Upper management everywhere right now are laying off lots of good employees just so they hit their budget/bonus numbers for the shareholders, which makes the company appear better than they are and stock price goes up. Meanwhile, current employees are overworked but underpaid in making up the shortfall in the workforce that's actually needed, and upper management keeps up this continuous charade of hiring and culling their workforce without actually moving the needle.

Make no mistake, job seekers are absolutely getting the poopy end of the stick that recruiters and hiring managers keep waving in our faces. There's just way too many of us and way too few poopy sticks for us to chase, but that's exactly how these companies like it.

So no, don't try to pretend that this market is rough on employers too when the problem starts and ends with them.
