Repetitive Job listing

[wwwoman]

There is a trend I have noticed with some clients. You wil see a job post, then you apply only to refresh your feed and see the same job listed again. This is even from accounts with verified payment. I used to think it's an error, but it continues everyday. I have seen it so often that I now recognize some listings. I wish I could even block them!

The annoying thing is that they won't even respond to anyone. When you check the posts it's always 0 interviews, but they will keep reposting. You will see more than 5 post from the same account on the same job. It's not fair because freelancers just waste their connects on clients that aren't even ready to hire. It floods my feed and prevents me from seeing other serious clients
