#1 Is a real job but advertised in such a manner that NOBODY can get that job. You might ask why on earth do people put these jobs up then if they do not want anybody. Well UK and French laws state that you can only hire people from outside the EU if you have advertised the job here for a certain period of time. Then you can give it to somebody outside the EU, in effect it is going through the motions.
#1.1 This can also exist as an internal job, this is somewhat normal in council jobs where the job description is so incredibly narrow somebody who already works in a lower job has been groomed to do this job. Hence this isn't really a job open to the market as it is again going through the motions.
#2 Is a more insidious kind of fake job, in that there is no actual job but jobs are advertised under vague terms. The client does not exist, the above jobs in the picture are all fake, out of about 40 or so jobs they are fake. But comes the decry but these sites charge money to post adverts, they do, but not always...
In that if you go to a jobsite and find no jobs what do you think?, its not a very good jobs website is it?. Hence certain jobs websites allow agencies to put up fake jobs for a lower or lesser fee so that it LOOKS as if there are plenty of jobs. I have questioned directors of such agencies before and they always deny that this is the case. Here is an example
Looks pretty convincing doesn't it? , however make a few mockups of your CV and post them, universally you will be invited to an interview, and yet all of a sudden the job is withdrawn mysteriously. The agencies always hide behind the wall of client priviledge so that there is no employer and people think that it is just their bad luck, but when this occurs constantly then your suspicions start getting aroused in that surely there cannot be so many withdrawn jobs and or filled vacancies?
