Open the longest
A role that stays open for months usually means the bar is high, the pay is off, or nobody is saying yes.

This page gets better with age. It is built from a daily record that started the day we began watching 8th Light. Every day it runs, there is more history here that cannot be reconstructed from anywhere else — because the original posts are deleted.
Job posts get deleted. We keep them.
FirstIn watches company job boards at the source and tells you the moment a role opens — and keeps the record after it's taken down, so you can see what really happened to a team's hiring.
