When This Job Was Posted?
We use multiple methods to find the real age of a job posting:
When dates conflict, we flag potential reposts where companies may have "refreshed" old listings to appear new.
Have a suggestion, found a bug, or want to report a job board we don't support yet?

Added BambooHR ATS integration. Jobs hosted on *.bamboohr.com/careers now return posting dates, job titles, department, employment type, compensation, and location via BambooHR's API.
Fixed Gem job board support — jobs from jobs.gem.com now correctly return posting dates and job details. Added a dedicated proxy endpoint to handle Gem's API, which was previously blocked by oversized response headers.
Improved Greenhouse detection — now finds Greenhouse job data on sites that embed it via iframes or non-standard URLs. Also handles boards.greenhouse.io/embed links and automatically discovers the correct board slug from page content when the URL alone isn't enough.
Added Indeed URL detection — Indeed blocks automated access, so the tool now warns users and suggests finding the original company careers page instead. LinkedIn warnings updated similarly.
Added Brassring (IBM Kenexa) ATS integration. Detects fragment-based job URLs and extracts job title, company, and posting date from enterprise career portals. Improved handling of expired job postings with clear error messages.
Added Google Careers detection with upfront notification that posting dates are not available. Improved company and title extraction for Google job pages. Enhanced Jina Reader fallback with better company pattern matching.
Improved Ashby integration with support for third-party career sites (e.g. CareePuck). Extracts board name from URL path and falls back to direct Ashby job pages for unlisted or confidential postings.
Added Paycor (formerly Newton Software) ATS integration. Detects embedded Paycor job boards and extracts job titles from Paycor's career pages.
Added Gem (jobs.gem.com) ATS integration. Extracts job title, posting date, company, department, employment type, compensation, and location from Gem's GraphQL API.
Added Copy button to result cards. Copies the full result as plain text including job title, company, likely posted date with explanation, all detected dates, and hidden insights.
Added Oracle HCM Cloud job board integration for automatic date extraction. Improved mobile layout with shorter input placeholders and better date display. Filter input now stays highlighted when active, and Clear All button repositioned for clarity.
Added sitemap.xml fallback for date detection. When other methods fail, we now check the site's sitemap for lastmod dates. Works well with SAP SuccessFactors and other enterprise career sites.
Added support for Ashby embedded job boards. Sites using Ashby embeds (with ashby_jid parameter) now fetch job data directly from Ashby's API.
Added support for Greenhouse embedded job boards. Sites using Greenhouse embeds (with gh_jid parameter) now fetch job data directly from Greenhouse's API, including the original posting date.
New "Hidden Insights" feature - automatically extracts and displays hidden metadata from job pages that isn't visible to users, including department info, AI screening status, employment type, and more.
Added report button for unsupported job boards, linking to our Reddit community for feedback.
Added Jina Reader for JavaScript-heavy pages, improved job title extraction, step-by-step loading progress.
Initial launch with support for regex patterns, JSON-LD, Open Graph, and Wayback Machine date detection.
This will remove all entries from your history.
Google Careers pages do not contain posting dates or last modified timestamps.
We can extract the job title and company name, but cannot determine when this job was posted.
Indeed blocks automated access to their job pages, so we cannot extract posting dates or any job data.
Tip: Look for the original company careers page link on the Indeed listing — that will give much better results.
LinkedIn blocks automated access to their job pages, so we cannot extract posting dates or any job data.
Tip: If you see an "Apply" button (not "Easy Apply"), click it to get the company's careers page URL — that will give much better results.
