Another point that many of these “Jobs” have unrealistic demands for precise College educations that really do not need a degree or certificate. Also with this ATS system you have to model your resume to match word for word the job description or it gets kicked out... And then there is Ghosting job applicates any point during this process. The days of having a career are over, many companies look as workers as resources and cast away at a whim...

Yes. I've been doing projects for banks for 20 years. The point about priorities suddenly shifting, permissions to hire being held up or somebody higher up suddenly pulling the plug on a project - sometimes after everybody has been hired - is completely true. I have no doubt some job listings are legitimate when they're posted and then a project gets delayed or cancelled and all those listings now become ghost jobs. That's part of it too.

And yes, I've been on projects that were suddenly cancelled and everybody on it received maybe a day's notice that they were suddenly out of a job. That's why I don't worry a bit about leaving one for another if its in my interest. They've never hesitated to screw me over....

Then we have to do what we have to do: federal laws against worker exploitation, because if not then we get some style of communist revolution
