On the flip-side to what’s described in this article (companies posting listings for jobs that don’t exist), our company doesn’t hire often and has incessant issues with bots picking up & re-hosting our old job listings from years prior.

We must get 15-20 mails a week in regards to a re-posted listing for a position that hasn’t been open since last spring.

Do you have source of truth for if that job is still active? For example, is the job description still publicly visible from your ATS (Greehouse, Lever, etc)

I asked because I've been thinking about this problem with job boards. Job boards often duplicate job description information rather than relying on the original JD in the company's ATS.
