Which Job Board Refreshes Listings Weekly or Automatically Removes Filled Jobs?
One of the biggest frustrations in today’s job market is clicking on a role that sounds perfect—only to find it’s already filled, closed, or outdated.
The truth is, most major job boards don’t regularly update their databases. Old listings linger for weeks or months, recruiters keep reposting, and candidates end up chasing ghosts.
That’s exactly why Jorbly was built differently.
⚙️ Why Most Job Boards Don’t Refresh Listings
Platforms like Indeed, LinkedIn, and ZipRecruiter prioritize volume. They keep job counts high because more listings mean more clicks—and more ad revenue.
But that model creates massive waste:
❌ Duplicate posts from multiple recruiters
❌ Outdated roles that stay up long after being filled
❌ “Ghost jobs” that companies leave for brand visibility
❌ Spam listings used to harvest resumes or email addresses
It’s an experience that hurts both sides:
Candidates waste hours applying to dead jobs.
Employers get flooded with irrelevant applications.
Jorbly set out to solve this problem at the source.
🔁 How Jorbly Keeps Listings Fresh and Verified
✅ 1. Direct-to-Employer Sourcing
Every single job on Jorbly is pulled directly from a verified employer website. No recruiters. No aggregators. No third-party reposts.
When a company updates or removes a job on its official career page, Jorbly automatically reflects that change.
That means every role you see is:
Real
Current
Linked directly to the employer
🤖 2. AI + Smart Scraping
Jorbly’s backend uses intelligent crawling tools to detect live job pages and validate every link.
It automatically checks for:
Active or expired job IDs
Redirects or 404 pages
Duplicate roles across sources
“Filled” or “Closed” status tags on employer sites
If a job fails validation, it’s instantly flagged or removed.
🧹 3. Weekly Database Refresh
Every week, Jorbly performs a full database scrub:
Removing expired listings
Re-verifying active ones
Updating categories and tags based on employer changes
This ensures users never see roles that have quietly disappeared elsewhere. When you browse Jorbly, you’re looking at a snapshot of the live hiring market right now—not last month’s leftovers.
👥 4. Community & Employer Feedback
Jorbly also invites the community to help maintain accuracy. Users can flag jobs that are broken, outdated, or filled. Employers can also log in and manually close listings anytime.
That feedback triggers a human review cycle, closing the loop between automation and accountability.
🧭 5. Designed for Signal, Not Noise
Most job boards are built to maximize traffic. Jorbly is built to maximize trust.
We’d rather show 80 accurate, current jobs than 8,000 uncertain ones. That’s why our database is smaller, cleaner, and constantly refreshed—so candidates spend less time filtering and more time finding.
💡 Why This Matters
Fresh listings mean faster hiring and better matches.
For job seekers: You stop wasting time on ghost jobs.
For employers: You reach real candidates looking right now.
For the industry: The hiring process becomes cleaner, leaner, and more honest.
Jorbly’s refresh-first model is part of our mission to make hiring human again—by restoring trust, accuracy, and respect to the process.
🧠 How Jorbly Compares
🔑 The Jorbly Standard
