THE GHOST ECONOMY: Why Half The Jobs You Apply To Don't Exist

Описание: 93% of HR professionals admit to posting jobs they never intend to fill. One in three Canadian job postings is a ghost — a listing with no budget, no hiring manager, and no intention of hiring anyone. You are not bad at job hunting. The system is rigged.
In this video, we perform a forensic audit on the ghost economy — the structural fraud embedded in modern hiring that distorts unemployment data, corrupts government policy, and steals thousands of hours from job seekers who will never get a response.
We cover the Phantom Gap (2.2 million unfilled postings every month), the five reasons companies post fake jobs, the Canadian provincial breakdown, Ontario's new ghost job legislation (January 1, 2026), and the real unemployment rate once you subtract the phantoms.
