We crawled 1,000+ company career pages today. 31% of jobs listed on major Indian job boards don't exist on the company's own site.

Disclaimer up front: I built ASAI, which is what generates this data. This is our actual crawl data from today.

What we did: automated crawler checks 1,000+ company career pages for tech jobs in India every few hours and cross-references listings against what's actually on the company's official site.

Today's numbers:

• 847 new roles found live on company career pages in the last hour

• 203 roles found on Naukri/LinkedIn that are NOT on the company's current careers page

• That's 31% - roughly 1 in 3

The reasons vary:

• Role was filled internally, listing never taken down

• Hiring freeze declared after the post went live

• Evergreen listing (company always keeps it up even when not actively hiring)

• Actually fake - collecting resumes for 'future need'

We can't always tell which reason it is. But we can tell when the listing doesn't exist on the source.

Happy to share more of the methodology or answer questions.

For context: ASAI is free for candidates
