What this listing does not tell you
Listed 78 days. Of the 40 post-training and RL roles this board has watched from listing to removal, 33% were gone from their employer's careers page by day 78, and the median came down after 110 days. That is a description of other listings that have already ended, not a prediction about this one: this board records when a listing disappears, never why, and a posting still up is not on a clock it can see.
