I have heard of companies recycling their job descriptions for numerous positions because they entail similar qualifications and skills, however I believe that providing the same salary range is misleading. In the case for Tiffany, she was in search for a higher paying job and had phenomenal expertise in the field she applied for. Since the job positing wasn’t accurate and didn’t provide complete information of the position, it was a waste of time for the recruiter and Tiffany. An accurate job posting would help recruiters not waste their time on applicants that aren’t interested in the job and the same goes for the applicants. As someone who is in search for a job, I would prefer a job description to be very detailed because it allows me to read and understand the type of person they are looking for and if I am even qualified for the position. The last thing any applicant wants to do is waste their time and the recruiter’s time if it’s not necessary. It’s crucial that organizations hire employees that are aligning with their goals because it could impact both performance and profitability if they don’t. Some hiring processes take longer than others, so companies should be utilizing their time wisely and one way to do that is by providing accurate and detailed job descriptions and salary ranges.

When I was applying for jobs after graduating from college with a degree in computer science I was faced with many issues on recruiting apps where I would apply, wait for a response and then get an email saying the job wasn’t ever available they just leave it open in case they do need someone to fill that role. I am not a fan of how job listings are laid out, I have relatively no experience so it is hard to get a job in the first place but going through the application process for a job that isn’t even listed is a huge waste of time.
To go along with your friend Tiffany’s problem the company I work for has a policy for listing Indeed ads that I really feel like is unfair. We don’t post a range on the ad we put the max they could make with everything included (basically an amount they aren’t typically even close to). We ad the the max experience plus an extra stipend they have to qualify for and out PA/PS bonus that most employees don’t even receive. This leads to a lot of disappointment from potential employees and wasted background checks the whole bit, I just wish that they were more honest with posting and made it a bigger focus.
