Have you heard about 'ghost job' listings? This rising trend is hurting job seekers

Jobseekers in the US are increasingly frustrated by being "ghosted" by employers who have no intention of filling job openings, according to Revelio Labs. The workforce intelligence firm found that reported incidences of ghosting have doubled in many industries compared to pre-pandemic levels. This has led to skepticism towards the government's Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey, which is seen as evidence of a tight labor market. The average job posting is now only half as likely to result in a new hire compared to before the pandemic.
