That's simply not true. Most companies post job listings on their own websites. Even intelligence agencies post job listings publicly these days.
There are some companies that prefer to remain secret, but they're really in a minority (this is the case for some hedgefunds, stealth startups, etc.).
- zavulon 16y agoYou are misinformed. > Most companies post job listings on their own websites. Yes, but this doesn't mean they publish ALL their job listings on their website. This is simply how the industry works.. ask any recruiter.
- ig1 16y agoAh I just realized we might be talking cross-wires here. In the software developer market, most jobs advertised by recruiters aren't "secret". However in other markets such as executive level roles it is the norm. There are two type of recruiter generally distinguishable by their relationship with the employer (exclusive versus non-exclusive). Exclusive recruiters tend to be used in the executive market when employers want to be discrete about a job, non-exclusive (which is the norm in tech) tend to be used primarily as a way to source candidates.
