VantageCV - Career Intelligence

Detect ghost jobs, check company safety scores, and save jobs to your VantageCV tracker — right from LinkedIn and job boards.

Detect ghost jobs, check company safety scores, and save jobs to your VantageCV tracker - right from LinkedIn and job boards. Stop wasting time on fake job postings. VantageCV's free browser extension flags ghost jobs directly on LinkedIn, Indeed, Glassdoor, ZipRecruiter, and other job sites - before you spend hours tailoring your resume for a position that was never real. Industry research suggests 28–32% of online job postings are ghost jobs - listings companies post with no real intention to hire. VantageCV makes those postings easy to spot at a glance. HOW IT WORKS When you browse a job board, the extension reads the job title and company name visible on the page and adds a small color-coded badge next to each listing: • Green = Low Risk — the posting looks legitimate. • Yellow = Moderate Risk — some warning signs detected. • Red = High Risk — strong ghost-job indicators found. No extra clicks needed. Badges appear automatically as you scroll. FEATURES Ghost Job Detection • Automatic risk badges on job listings across LinkedIn, Indeed, Glassdoor, ZipRecruiter, and other job sites. • Quick manual ghost check from the popup — type a company and title for an instant assessment. • Color-coded risk levels with confidence scores. One-Click Job Saving (optional, requires free VantageCV account). • Save any job to your VantageCV Job Tracker with one click. • Job URL, title, company, and location auto-fill from the page you're viewing. • Saved jobs sync to your VantageCV dashboard. Quick Links • Jump directly to your VantageCV Dashboard, Job Tracker, or Ghost Job Intelligence Database. 13-Language Support • Full UI in English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Brazilian Portuguese, Chinese, Japanese, Arabic, Russian, Hindi, and Filipino. • Right-to-left (RTL) layout support for Arabic. SUPPORTED JOB BOARDS • LinkedIn (linkedin.com/jobs) • Indeed (indeed.com) • Glassdoor (glassdoor.com) • ZipRecruiter (ziprecruiter.com) • Other job sites - including company websites. PRIVACY • Ghost checks send only the visible company name and job title to VantageCV's API — no browsing history, no page content beyond those two fields. • No ads, no third-party trackers, no data resale. • "Save Job" and personalized analysis require a VantageCV account; sign-in reuses your existing vantage-cv.com session via a session cookie on vantage-cv.com only. • Full privacy policy: https://vantage-cv.com/privacy-policy. PERMISSIONS EXPLAINED • Host access to linkedin.com, indeed.com, glassdoor.com, ziprecruiter.com, and others - required to inject the ghost-risk badge into job-listing pages. • Host access to vantage-cv.com - required to call the VantageCV API and to detect an existing logged-in session for one-click sign-in. • "storage" — saves your language preference and a session token locally. • "activeTab" + "scripting" - reads the title/company of the job page you're currently viewing when you click "Save Job" so the form auto-fills. • "cookies" - reads the vantage-cv.com session cookie ONLY on vantage-cv.com so signed-in users don't have to log in twice. The browser extension is 100% free, forever. No account is required for ghost-risk badges or quick checks. For the full Career Intelligence experience, visit vantage-cv.com.
