Job posting verification
Is this job posting still active? Check before you apply.
A job page can remain visible after the employer changes, replaces, or closes the underlying role. BackChannels checks the source behind the link before you spend time tailoring an application.
Paste a job URLA visible job page is not always a current opportunity.
Listings move through aggregators, employer sites, and applicant tracking systems at different speeds. The URL alone does not tell you which record is authoritative.
Copied listings can outlive the source
An aggregator page may remain accessible after the employer removes or replaces its own posting.
Several URLs can describe one role
Reposts, location variants, and tracking links can make one opening look like several separate opportunities.
An open page can still be a weak signal
A page loading successfully does not confirm that the employer still accepts applications through that route.
BackChannels verifies the route, not just the page.
Paste the listing you found. The report checks the employer source and gives you a clear next move without asking you to investigate every copy yourself.

What job seekers ask
Can a job listing stay online after the role closes?
Yes. Copied pages, cached results, and aggregator records may remain visible after the employer source changes or disappears.
What happens if BackChannels finds an unavailable posting?
BackChannels does not present a dead route as verified. When a reliable employer source can be recovered, the report uses it. When it cannot, the product tells you the listing is unavailable instead of inventing an answer.
Does BackChannels check employer career sites?
Yes. Official employer career pages and direct applicant tracking system records are prioritized when they are available.
Can I check a LinkedIn or Indeed job URL?
Yes. Paste the specific job URL and BackChannels will attempt to resolve it to the strongest available employer route.
