Many job listings stay up long after hiring is complete, wasting applicants' time. Build a browser extension that analyzes job post dates and flags listings older than a set threshold. Job seekers pay a small fee for the time-saving tool. Start by supporting a few major job boards. The biggest risk is job boards blocking the extension.
