How it works

Three signals. One score. No wasted applications.

01

Scan the listing

Paste any job URL from LinkedIn, Indeed, Glassdoor, or any major board. ApplySure pulls the posting age, company signals, and description patterns.

02

Analyze the signals

Three layers: Ghost detection (repost patterns, posting age, company interview volume), fit scoring (your resume vs. requirements), response likelihood (historical company response rates).

03

See your score

Get an instant Real / Ghost / Caution verdict with the specific signals that drove it — so you know exactly why a listing scored the way it did.

What we detect

Ghost jobs have a fingerprint. We read it.

Recruiters post ghost jobs for specific, documented reasons: legal compliance, investor signaling, talent pipeline building, employer brand maintenance. These reasons leave traces in the listing itself — and those traces are detectable.

Repost patterns
Same description, new job ID — resets the "posted today" clock while the role stays unfilled
Extended silence
Posted 60+ days with no update — companies rarely remove active listings manually
Missing salary range
"Competitive compensation" with no dollar figure — strong negative signal for response probability
Vague job descriptions
Generic language that could apply to any role — a hallmark of compliance or pipeline postings
Active interview volume
Company is currently interviewing for this role — Glassdoor/LinkedIn data shows recent candidate activity
Salary range posted
Legally compliant, specific pay bands — a strong signal of genuine active hiring intent

"You should not have to apply to 50 jobs to get 3 responses. The market isn't broken — the information is asymmetric. ApplySure exists to fix that."
