Maybe some more experienced architects can answer this: Why do firms post the same positions over and over again? Are they not finding anyone? Are they churning through employees? Is the normal? Should this send up a red flag?
Why DO architecture firms keep looking for architects? Haven't they sorted out the whole "advancement" and "retirement" thing yet?
I should have clarified - between twice and once a month posting the same jobs: is that in anyway unusual?
red flag for sure...
high turnover = assholes.
1. They may be burning through staff
2. They are growing fast and need to fill a niche (the 3~10yrs level is hard to find)
3. They can't find anyone of the right fit and want to stay at the top of posting pages
If you get an interview, you can always ask directly and/or find out through current/past employees.
^ This.I would get a pretty even distribution of these. Obviously it's a pretty big deal which it is, so trying to find out is a good idea.Another funny trend is when firms post openings with different titles for what is actually the same job, trying to draw in different people.
