A lot of the jobs listed on major job sites are fake- especially many listed by major companies and chains that are located in many cities. I have no idea why- but they are indeed listing jobs that don’t exist. If you actually apply for the job, and follow up you are told there is no opening at this time they are just taking applications to have on file. Also at times the jobs are listed for months after they have been filled. That makes no sense to me but it is happening.

Yep...many do this because it's a lazy mans way of keeping their options open if there is a rapid turnover....Hospitality and retail are two who constantly take applications and advertise for....just the nature of those businesses. People job jump alot in those businesses because the only way you can get a sizable raise is to negotiate at a new job.

The secret to getting a job is use the internet only to see what companies or businesses are hiring...you have to get out from in front of the computer and go there with resume in hand and the name of who does the hiring and ask to see them.. Otherwise you are just another name on a long list of applicants.
