Coverage
Coverage snapshot: 17 August 2026
This page records the submission scope at the snapshot date. It is a historical record, not a live counter or a statement of today’s submission coverage. How the figures are counted is below.
Snapshot taken August 17, 2026.
Methodology
What counts as submittable. A role counted when it was open in the dated snapshot on a supported real company career page. Listings marked expired before the snapshot were excluded.
Deduplication. Each unique listing is counted once. Companies are counted by normalized company name, so an employer with many open roles counts as one company, not many.
Snapshot and refresh. The headline figures are rounded down from the live snapshot taken on the snapshot date, so they never overstate the real count. The snapshot refreshes on the scraper's regular scrape cadence. When the underlying numbers change materially, this page and the change history below are updated.
How long listings stay open (the “ghost job” problem)
Across the 230,000+ currently-open job listings Nox tracks (as of August 17, 2026), the average listing has been open for about two months, and roughly 3 in 10 have been open for 90 or more days. That is a measure of the “ghost job” problem, where postings linger long after a normal hiring cycle would have closed them.
Read these as of the date. “Open” means the listing is still live the last time Nox saw it, and the age is measured from when Nox first observed the listing, not from the employer's own posting date, which we cannot see. The corpus also moves in steps rather than smoothly: a single bulk expiry on July 22, 2026 removed about 152,000 stale listings at once, partly offset by new listings scraped since, which both shrank the tracked corpus and aged the listings that survived. Figures older than a few weeks should be treated as superseded rather than trended.
The 230,000+ figure covers every currently-open listing Nox tracks across all sources, a broader set than the about 180,000 submittable roles above, which are limited to the supported company career pages in the snapshot.
Change history
August 17, 2026
Coverage re-pulled and re-rounded down again. Submittable coverage on Greenhouse and Recruitee is now about 180,000 roles across about 6,000 companies, and the tracked open corpus is 230,000+. The previous figures on this page (about 188,000 roles, about 6,100 companies, 260,000+ tracked) were above the live counts and no longer hold. The new floors are set coarser on purpose, so they survive normal weekly churn rather than needing a fresh re-round every few days.
August 8, 2026
Coverage re-pulled and re-rounded down. Submittable coverage on Greenhouse and Recruitee is now about 188,000 roles across about 6,100 companies, down from the previous about 214,000 roles across about 7,800 companies.
July 28, 2026
Listing-age figures corrected. A bulk expiry on July 22 (including one large aggregator source) removed about 152,000 stale listings in a single day, and after new listings scraped since, the tracked open corpus is down by roughly a third — which mechanically aged the listings that survived. The tracked open corpus is now 260,000+, the average time open so far is about two months, and roughly 3 in 10 open listings are 90 or more days old. The previous figures on this page (400,000+ tracked, about 53 days, roughly 1 in 7 at 90+ days) described the pre-expiry corpus and no longer hold. Submittable coverage on Greenhouse and Recruitee is unchanged at about 214,000 roles across about 7,800 companies.
