How Microsoft posts

Employer behavior measured from this employer’s own listings, including ones that have since closed.

Open roles are up 21 from a week ago (666 then).

Half of Microsoft’s listings come down within 16 days.

Estimated over 3,102 listings, of which 2,413 closed during the window — listings still up are counted as lasting at least as long as we have seen them, rather than being left out. Leaving them out is what makes a plain average of closed listings read far too short.

The repost figure describes the 2,427 of this employer’s listings we have watched close since September 2026 — not all of its hiring, and not a rate we project forward. A repost means the listing closed while the same employer had another live listing under the same title: a signal, not a verdict, since two genuinely separate openings can share one title. See the methodology.

On the Ghost Job Index Microsoft scores 25 out of 100, ranked 59 of 78 employers with enough history to be measured.
