Every company does this differently, so depends.. If a job is reposted often, it might mean they’re not finding the right fit or just collecting resumes. Try applying directly on the company’s site and also reach out to someone there on LinkedIn. Sometimes that extra step gets you noticed faster.
Making connections on Linkedin really helped me. I focused on making real connections rather than applying.
I heard an interview with a recruiter who said some of those job sites just do an awful job of taking down old listings. So it could be that. Or, it could be a ghost job. Some companies will post jobs they don't intend to fill. It's usually done, from what I gather, to make it look like the company is doing well and hiring even if it isn't.
Yeah I am having a hard time gauging what's legit on there and what's not too. I've heard sometimes companies repost just to keep the listing fresh. But I’ve found it more helpful to check the company site directly and apply there like someone said above. Also, someone told me that setting up alerts with filters can sometimes help cut through the noise and save some time.
