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.

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.

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.

We're out to change hiring.
Applying to jobs should not be a demoralizing process. It should not mean firing résumés into a void, rewriting the same story for an algorithm, or waiting weeks for a reply that never comes. Signal is built on a simple premise: when intent is verified and silence has a cost, hiring gets honest again. For everyone.
