Question 1

Do all postings have a score yet?

Accepted Answer

Scores populate as tracking history builds — a posting needs at least a few days of observations before the score moves off neutral. Postings we've just started watching honestly show 'Insufficient data'. Every tracked posting is re-reviewed every few hours, so scores firm up automatically as we watch.

Question 2

What is a ghost job?

Accepted Answer

A job posting that was never realistically going to be filled — listed for months, reposted to look fresh, spread across many boards, or left up after the role was cancelled.

Question 3

How can I tell if a job posting is fake?

Accepted Answer

Look for postings that stay up for months, reappear after being taken down, or appear in identical form on many boards. HireClarity Data measures exactly those signals and turns them into one score.

Question 4

Why do job postings stay up for months?

Accepted Answer

Roles can stay open for many reasons — a slow pipeline, an evergreen talent pool, or a posting left running after hiring paused. The posting itself rarely explains which; its history does.

Question 5

Are reposted job listings a bad sign?

Accepted Answer

Not always — a role can be reposted because it changed. But frequent take-down-and-relist cycles are one of the clearest ghost-job signals, because they make an old posting look new.

Question 6

How much does HireClarity Data cost?

Accepted Answer

Free: all published data is free and public — every posting's confidence score and history — plus 5 checks a month with sign-in. HireClarity Data: $9/month for everyone — unlimited checks, watchlists and alerts. No trial.
