Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter

Ghost jobs are job postings that companies don't intend to fill. Companies post ghost jobs for various reasons like wanting to hire eventually, maintaining a talent pool, or creating a false impression of company growth. To avoid ghost jobs, job seekers should be wary of vague job descriptions, old listings, and companies with little online presence.
