Career Ops · Block G
Catch ghost jobs before you waste a weekend.
Every evaluation checks whether a posting is a real, active opening — using posting age and your own scanner's history, not a guess from the job-ad text.
At a glance
14d · reposting threshold
A URL visible two-plus weeks before its claimed posted date trips the reposting flag.
From your data, not the ad
Other tools guess from the posting text. We use posting age and your own scan history — facts, not vibes.
Private by design
Your scan history is yours alone; it never informs another user's evaluation.
Context-aware tiers
The verdict defaults to caution when data is thin, and never lands on 'suspicious' without concrete signals.
How it works
How Ghost-Job Detector works
- 01
Server-side facts first
Before any AI runs, we compute the posting's age and exactly when your scanner first saw the URL — concrete facts, not inferences.
- 02
Reposting heuristic
If you saw the URL more than 14 days before its claimed posted date, that's the classic refresh-and-repost pattern — and we flag it with the exact lead time.
- 03
A grounded verdict
Block G returns a tier — high confidence, proceed with caution, or suspicious — with every signal labeled by source: extracted, scan history, or inferred.
- 04
Observations, not accusations
Every signal carries an innocent explanation, and the model accounts for roles (government, academic, staff+) that legitimately stay open for months.
