Measured 5 Nov 2026: a posting written in Ukrainian on an English Ashby page came back CLEAR from posting.mjs, because the language guess had no Cyrillic stop words at all. Ukrainian and Russian now each have a list of the words the two languages spell differently, so the guess tells them apart and a Ukrainian-only posting closes the door.

Measured 6 Nov 2026: live.mjs called a Teamtailor posting OPEN because the job page answered 200, while the page itself said "This position is no longer active". Only a removed ad answers 404. The check now reads the page text on a 200. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Measured 12 Nov 2026 on three tenants: adding locationName and workplaceType to the ApiJobPosting selection made jobPosting null with HTTP 200, which reads exactly like a wrong slug or a closed posting. The example now asks for title and applicationForm only; the location comes from the public board API. An organization name with spaces works as the slug.

- Ashby (Spruce, 9 Nov 2026): a "When can you start?" text input is a calendar; a sentence typed into it fails as a missing entry. - Greenhouse (ESW 5 Nov, Financial Times 6 Nov): a select picked with PICKOPT shows its value and submits empty; picking it by keyboard registers it. - Rippling (Multiplayer Studio, 9 Nov): the resume parse pre-answers the SMS consent and Current company and cuts the first name. - Teamtailor (ENSEK, 9 Nov): a phone picker opened on the employer's country turns a national number into a foreign one; typing the full international number switches the flag.

Measured 11 Nov 2026. Recooty fills name, email and phone from the uploaded resume. GlobalLogic's country field is a Bootstrap selectpicker that ignores the native select, and its first submit can fail silently even after the reCAPTCHA is ticked; a second try went through.

Measured 5 Nov 2026: ESW's Senior Product Design Engineer was listed as Easy Apply at fit 3 from the alert card alone, while the employer's Greenhouse board held the same role, which read as fit 5 and went out as a company form the same day. Probe the employer's board before writing the Easy Apply list. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Measured 5 Nov 2026: 17 of a day's 37 candidates came through arc.dev and every one resolved to a LinkedIn job, five of them already tracked under their LinkedIn id. Dedup and read them as LinkedIn postings. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Measured 9 Nov 2026: six spaced tags returned 148 unique rows, mostly unrelated, because the matching is semantic. Filter on jobTitle; no new application came of it. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
