Lots of companies continue to hire even as they cut jobs. I would even say it is normal. Ghost jobs do also exist.

I don’t know about that. A lot of times companies will already have someone they want but they have to post a job listing for X days before they can fulfill it.

Full time hire process can take a long time and is why contract to hire can get you in the door faster.

What you are describing is a ghost job though, right? At least from the perspective of all the applicants but one.

Oops. I guess I agree with binary132 then. I misread that and apparently added a "not" in there in my head.

This is still a ghost job. A ghost job are jobs advertised that are not intended to be filled. If they are leaving ads up for jobs that are already filled it is a ghost job.
