Posts about indexing public job postings at scale, salary parsing, and the systems that keep one universal JSON schema feeling small even as the source list keeps growing.

### What "job closed or expired" means on Indeed (and what to do about it)

On Indeed, "job closed or expired" means the listing is no longer taking applications - either the employer closed it, or the posting ran out its visibility window. It is one combined status, so it does not tell you which happened, and it does not mean the role was filled. Here is how to tell the difference, how long Indeed postings really stay up, and whether to reapply when one is reposted.

### Job data API: how to evaluate one before you build on it

Every job data API claims millions of postings, real-time updates, and clean structured fields. None of that is falsifiable from a landing page. Here are the seven dimensions job posting data actually varies on - coverage, latency, dedup, normalization, ID stability, status tracking, and provenance - and a test you can run for each one inside a two-week trial.

### What happened to the Indeed Publisher API

For about fifteen years the Indeed Publisher API was every developer's first stop for jobs data - free, public, XML. Indeed closed sign-ups in 2020, marked it deprecated in 2023 and switched it off in 2024. What it was, why the strategic logic reversed, what exists instead, and what former users read Indeed postings with now.
