India has a huge fake jobs problem. I think it is because of the number of "HR consultants" who constantly need to refresh their databases with "fresh" resumes. I've seen the same jobs being posted for over 8 years with no change whatsoever other than the keyword updates.

That's a funny mechanism. So these are fake jobs that HR consultants (recruiters?) use to harvest resumes?

What's the angle here?

They can submit those resumes to other positions.

This type of recruiter often is paid based on # of resumes furnished, not actually filling the position, so the incentives are completely misaligned.
