About Signal

We're building hiring around intent and accountability.

Signal Jobs is a hiring platform building a framework around intent and accountability in a world overrun by ghost jobs. We hold both sides of the market to the commitments they make: employers post roles they actually intend to fill, and conversations don't go dark.

The cost isn't just time.

When you apply to a ghost job, the employer already knows they won't hire you. You don't. You spend hours on a cover letter, prep for an interview that was never going to happen, and wait weeks for a reply that will never come.

Two hours in. Seven seconds out.

Candidates spend an average of 2 hours tailoring each application: researching the company, rewriting the resume, crafting the cover letter. The recruiter's first look lasts about 7 seconds.

Zety, 2024

Ghosted at the finish line.

40% of candidates are ghosted after a second or third-round interview. That's after the prep call, the panel, the take-home. The rate has increased every year since 2022.

The search becomes the problem.

Hiring is broken.

Too many hiring managers post requisitions with no real, near-term plan to hire anyone. Roles kept open for a future budget, posted for optics, or left up long after an internal pick was made. What was once a fringe annoyance is now a structural feature of the job market, and candidates pay the price.

Signal Jobs

We're out to change hiring.

Applying to jobs should not be a full-time job. It should not mean sending your résumé into a void, no reply, no feedback, no sense of where you stand. The gap between applications and answers costs people their confidence, their momentum, and sometimes their career.

Signal changes that. We connect qualified candidates with employers who are accountable for responding. Because your time and effort deserve more than silence.
