How can I track a company's job listings?
Zeltru tracks job postings from 16,220+ companies' own career pages, and each company has a page listing its postings and how long each has been up.
To keep track of one company, look it up there, follow it, or watch the job you applied to.
On Zeltru
Look the company up. Its page lists the postings on its own careers site, how long each has been up, and how its count has changed. Find it in the company directory.
Follow it. With a free account, your dashboard lists each company you follow with its new postings and how long its postings are usually listed.
Watch a job you applied to. If it is on a careers site we read (such as Workday, Greenhouse, iCIMS, Lever or Ashby), paste its link into your watchlist, and we watch whether it is still listed.
On the employer's own site
Many careers sites let you sign up for alerts for a search or a location. They come from the employer, so they can include roles posted anywhere on its site.
Questions
How can I keep track of the jobs a company posts?
Look the company up on Zeltru: its page lists the postings on its own careers site and how long each has been up. With a free account you can follow it: your dashboard lists each company you follow with its new postings and how long its postings are usually listed. Many careers sites also offer their own job alerts.
Can I track one job I applied to?
Yes, if the job is on a careers site we read (such as Workday, Greenhouse, iCIMS, Lever or Ashby): paste its link into your watchlist, and Zeltru watches whether the posting is still listed on the employer's careers site.
Does a posting coming down mean the job was filled?
No. A posting coming down means it is no longer listed. Nothing on a careers page says why a posting came down.
Check a specific posting
Paste the link to a job on the employer’s own careers page to see how long it has been listed, counted from the employer’s posting date. No account needed.
What this doesn’t tell you
We read employers' own careers sites, not every job board. A job posted only on a job board, and not on the employer's site, is not in our counts.
A new posting can be up before we see it. We read each site on a schedule, so a posting appears on our pages after we next read that site.
We see listings, not reasons. A posting coming down, or staying up, says nothing on its own about the hiring behind it.
