Anyone notice that the same few jobs from the same companies are always coming up on job boards and career sites over and over? What gives? Is this all just a ploy to keep up appearances that agencies are strong, healthy & hiring and or is it just fake news/resume mining? #AskingforaFriend

Correct. Ghost jobs.

I was part of RIF from a leading tech company in the semiconductor industry 2017. While looking for a comparable position and salary, I noticed the same roles being circulated. Fast forward to 2022 another RIF. Strangely enough, I was seeing the exact same companies for the same roles. I think you hit the nail on the head about appearances and resume mining.

I need help/advice/emotional support/literally anything.

I’m an in-house designer. My company decided to offer social media marketing packages to our clients. Today they asked me to take full ownership of that outside social media marketing on top of my current job duties.

I expressed a need for a promotion or raise to compensate for the major increase in responsibility, a responsibility that is not currently in my description.

They pushed back.

What’s your take on a job listing that states “From $xx,xxx”

The particular job I’m looking at has this on the listing and I’m curious as to what their budget actually is. Do I assume a range?

They’re seeking someone with 5-8 years experience. I have the latter (8 almost 9)

How would I approach this when asked without pricing myself out of the position? Especially if they’re not willing to be upfront (assuming here) how much they’d want to offer me in particular.
