My heart is a [Ghost Job Town](https://www.linkedin.com/posts/pathrise_ghost-jobs-are-more-common-than-you-think-activity-7237174192612196353-zse-/) - they say at least 25% of job posts are fake, as well as over 50% of [Linkedin content](https://originality.ai/blog/ai-content-published-linkedin)…

*Arghh*

So, what are the possible reasons?

* You MUST show growth either as a startup or to other stage investors/stockholders
    
* You want to measure the (desperate) applicant ‘supply’
    
* You data and/or HR practices are out-of-date, e.g. you don’t have a [SSOT (Single Source Of Truth](https://www.mulesoft.com/resources/esb/what-is-single-source-of-truth-ssot))
    

All this leads to:

* Frustration for job seekers, investors
    
* Lost time for applicants, HR managers
    
* <s>Computing resources and glucose wasted!1</s>
