does anyone know if Spotify advertise fake jobs? I’ve been applying for their data science positions - I’ve literally worked with Spotify data before at one of the big 3 record labels, for 10 years, and i keep getting rejected. I can’t for the life of me understand why.

There are always so many stories about ghost jobs being posted, but it's hard to tell who's really doing it. It's possible a company just posts jobs to get a sense of what talent is out there in case they need someone. Which is maybe not technically a ghost job, but still wastes people's time. Maybe the best approach in this case is to try to network your way in, try to talk to someone who knows someone who can get you an interview. Easier said than done, but that might be the best strategy.

No fake jobs that I have seen but I know you gotta get kinda lucky. We often open a role for a few hours and get a thousand applicants.
