I am curious about job posting for the same company repeated for months
Advertisements [?]
On Monster, CareerBuilder and others, I have noticed the same companies offering the SAME jobs for months on end. I have put in for these jobs and never contacted.

Since these same jobs never appear in my Sunday Classifieds, I wonder if they are bogus to make it appear there ARE jobs out there.

These jobs are from companies and NOT from employment agencies.

Oh, and one I now realize is trying to recruit people to SELL insurance, and he will rent you desk space to do so. His ad is for a Customer Service Rep and Insurance Sales. He has no intention of hiring any "employees", he is hiring independent contractors who pay him rental space to work on commission only. Talk about bait and switch. I interviewed for a CSR with him and traveled 20+ miles each way to do so. He kept pitching the sales side. This was six months ago and his ad is STILL running.

Other jobs I see reappearing week after week, and month after month are major firms. I have a difficult time believing that it takes so long to find someone who is adept at customer service/administrative functions for six months ongoing when they are offering benefits.

GET REAL
