How Job Ads Reveal Employers Who Actually Hire vs Those Who Just Post

Lucas and Luna dig into a surprising signal hidden in job ads: the speed at which employers respond to applicants. Using recent data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics—including June's unemployment rate of 4.2 percent and JOLTS openings up to 7.594 million—they explain why a job posting that stays up for months may actually be a ghost listing. They share a concrete metric listeners can check in job ads to separate real opportunities from window dressing, and discuss how a cooling labor market makes this signal even more valuable for active job seekers. Plus, a candid moment about what keeps the podcast ad-free. #JobMarket #HiringTrends #GhostJobs #JobAds #LaborMarket #UnemploymentRate #JOLTS #JobSearch #Employment #LucasAndLuna #Fexingo #BusinessPodcast #Careers #HiringSignal #JobSeekers #Recruiting #JobPosting #EmploymentData Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
