Show the dates the employer first posted the job opening with the ability to sort job postings by the date they were posted by the employer.

It is a common misconception that all jobs are filled in 30-45 days.  The fact is, most jobs go unfilled for more than 180 days due to the lack of qualified applicants.  Recruiting qualified applicants is a much more complex problem then most applicants think.  Applicants stop applying, because they ASSUME the position is filled, and the position goes unfilled for an even longer period of time.  In most cases, the older a posting is, the fewer applicants will apply for it.     Employers post and manage their own jobs in our system.  They have full control over everything related to their company and account in the Avjobs Employer System.  When their postings get filled, they remove them.  Avjobs will post and remove positions for employers if there is a specific request from an employer.  Avjobs provides the framework to make the recruiters' job easier.  If the posting is still in the system, it is there for a reason.  You should apply for every position that you are qualified for and interested in.     Before developing our Applicant System, we sent a questionnaire to over 7000 participating Avjobs Employers.  The request to remove the "Date Posted" field from job postings was unanimous.  The average time to fill a vacant position among responders was 204 days.  Some even reported that they had the same position open for up to 2 years. We strongly recommend that you apply, apply, and apply.
