Are you perchance gesturing towards stock owned companies trying to improve their public looks by creating a look of growing via ghost job postings?

No, that couldn’t be it. Yes, the incentive exists for them to do that, but I’m sure their conscious wouldn’t let them lead people on and waste their time like that.

Maybe it's a subconscious motivation?

Also a premium ad spot for free. It would be interesting to see the CTR of these "campaigns".

When I used "we" in my post, it's because I don't make hiring decisions unilaterally.
