User reports that when job postings are edited (e.g., title changes), all existing applications are discarded, leading to significant frustration and wasted effort for applicants. This highlights a need for job board and ATS software to retain or transfer applications across minor job post updates.
Very useful. I have submitted applications only to hear that the job was filled or no longer open. In addition, if there are any edits to the job posting, it resets the job posting. Let's say there is a Business Analyst job posted. 200 applications come in. The next week, the employer changes the title to Business Analyst II, all 200 applications are tossed out. I also am seeing among my experienced friends, they are not considered at all for jobs because they have too much experience. I have 20+ yrs of experience and time and again I am hearing "this is a junior role" even thought the listing says mid-level. But don't call it ageism! I liked the old days of pounding the pavement, walking around the city, handing out resumes. At least then you could look someone in the eye and get a feel for your chances. This is just a black, faceless box.
