Three things I've seen:
Employees getting "title changes" with no formal promotions.
Finding candidates through employee referrals or word-of-mouth, therefore no formal job posting.
"Expression of Interest" job postings, where no role is technically open or being sought to fill, but candidates can still submit resumes.
Last company I was at would bring people in on referrals, then offer them a different job and never pay out the referral because they didn't accept the job there were initially referred for.
Magically the well dried up in a couple months and they were looking at 80% turnover in a matter of weeks. Never seen so many people quit en masse.
Did they have any kind of self-awareness as to why they had the resulting turnover? So many times I've been in companies where they do boneheaded moves, have the inevitable consequence, and then blame it on something else.
The industry was pharma. Specifically the opioid side. They don't do self-awareness. And I'll do ya one more, they have been in the headlines recently. Just do a quick search for Mallinckrodt and you'll get the gist.
I don't get the third. There is a company pretty close to my home that has had the same job post up for years. It is fairly specific as well. Is it some kinda weird tax or immigration scam? Like they have to pretend to be trying to find someone for a role.
It could be that, yes. I just meant that by having a general "expression of interest" post, they can say they're not hiring, but still be building a candidate pool. Then when they need people, they can pull from it and say, "well, we're not specifically filling a role, but you seem like you'd be a good fit here." Nothing specifically wrong with that either, except once again, they can get away with not posting a salary.
