I’m so frustrated with all these fake job posts. I just spent the whole morning vetting a lead only to find out it was a scam. It feels like a full-time job just trying to spot the red flags. Does anyone know of any reliable boards that actually vet their listings? I’m looking for something better than the big sites so I can actually trust what I’m seeing.

The problem is that people posting scams know what legit listings look like, so they can mimic them pretty closely. And it's unclear how much vetting happens anywhere. Given the immense number of job postings floating around it seems unlikely that there's a lot of vetting by the job boards. It shouldn't take all morning to vet a potential employer, but the only way to deal with it is to do some fast searches and try to validate things.

I'm not even sure how job boards would vet job listings, because so many of these scams look completely legitimate. It's why they work so well and why many of us find ourselves in the position of talking to a scammer. I completely understand your frustration. They are praying on the desperation of job seekers and it's just plain gross.

I relate to this so much. I now assume half my job search time is scam detection. I stick to company career pages, referrals, and niche boards. Big platforms feel noisy unless I already recognise the employer.

I have recently joined HCL technologies (10days back) as a senior tech lead but my project has not started yet and even the laptop shipment is in progress.
I wanted to understand what is the notice period of an employee in probation period. Or is it better to get absconded of I get any better offers.

Might be off topic, but guys please, take care of your health. I've been rejected by all companies in the last 2 months.
I had my Walmart interview today and it went really well. And guess what? I got a rejection email.
I felt dizziness while working and fell down today.
I had to go to the doctor due to the anxiety and stress I was carrying since the last 2 months. It has affected my health.

It's important to push yourself to achieve your goals, but don't forget to "Live" in the process.

My book is just spec and side projects. I’m trying to get a new junior-to-mid role because I’ve gotten nothing good produced where I’m at, and I have zero faith this will change if I stick around.

I’m asked for work samples from recruiters and CDs even though I make clear that what I’ve done doesn’t reflect who I am as a creative. Think CRM/DM/B2B stuff. They insist on it, and I never hear back afterwards.

Not sure what to do. Almost feel like I’d be better off erasing my agency experience.
