Report: 28% of company career-site job postings stay open past 90 days

A new analysis of postings pulled directly from applicant tracking system APIs found that 28% of jobs listed on employer career sites remain open for more than 90 days after publication. The data covers postings verified as live on employer sites, tracked at the board level every few hours rather than scraped or estimated. The report also tracks 'reposts' — listings that close and reappear within 30 days for the same role — but does not label any individual posting a 'ghost job'.

Hacker News opens September 2026 'Who is hiring?' thread

Hacker News has posted its recurring monthly hiring thread for September 2026, where companies can list open positions directly. The post lays out submission rules, requiring location details and remote-work status, and restricting entries to employees of the hiring company rather than recruiters or job boards. It also links to several third-party search tools for browsing past listings and points to a companion thread for job seekers.
