As broken as the visa system here is, I don't believe any short term visa (one that would need to be renewed) requires a job posting, for initial or renewal. They're based on other factors, and generally just require an application and for the candidate to be eligible. The only time a job posting had to be created for me was for PERM, for the green card process.
