Limits. Smaller manufacturers post on regional job boards we do not always cover. Senior executive searches conducted via retained search firms are invisible to all hiring feeds.

"Evergreen" postings (always-open requisitions) are de-weighted to avoid false positives. We flag every posting's lifecycle state.
