Why did a company's open jobs drop in TheirStack?

The TheirStack help pages give 3 common reasons. The first to rule out: TheirStack marks a job closed when it no longer finds it at the source, as its docs explain, so a company's open jobs fall as postings come down.

What causes it?

  1. TheirStack marks a job closed when it no longer finds it at the source, as its docs explain, so a company's open jobs fall as postings come down.

    In the TheirStack help: When we visit a source and a job is no longer there, we mark it as closed and record the exact date. Freshness, read 2026-11-12.

  2. The closed date is when TheirStack confirmed a job was gone, as its docs explain, so a drop can show up some time after the company took the postings down.

    In the TheirStack help: The closed date reflects when we confirmed the job was gone, not the exact moment the company removed it. Freshness, read 2026-11-12.

  3. TheirStack checks sources and companies at different rates, as its docs say, so closed jobs for one company can be picked up sooner or later than for another.

    In the TheirStack help: We continuously tune how often we check each source and each company based on observed patterns. Freshness, read 2026-11-12.

How do I check it myself?

  1. Search the company's closed jobs to see which postings closed and when.

    In the TheirStack help: Show only closed jobs (`is closed`), only open jobs, or all. Job Search, read 2026-11-12.

  2. From the company's page, open a job search limited to that company to compare its open and closed jobs.

    In the TheirStack help: Opens a job search pre-filtered for this company, with the full job search experience and all available filters. Company Lookup, read 2026-11-12.

  3. Jobs that closed stay in TheirStack, so the postings that left the open count can still be found and read.

    In the TheirStack help: TheirStack stores all historical data, so even expired jobs remain accessible. Job Search, read 2026-11-12.

How does TheirStack work with Feder?

  • Connect TheirStack to Feder and it joins your Interest apps.
  • When you connect TheirStack, Feder checks the connection straight away and shows Connected only when that check passes. If a reading cannot be taken later, Feder shows it as not read, never as zero.

Some numbers are too quiet to judge daily, such as a form filled in a few times a week. Until there is enough of your own history to judge a change, Feder says it is still learning and scores nothing, rather than guessing.

See whether you can trust the numbers in TheirStack, one of your Interest apps. Feder only reads. It never changes anything in TheirStack.

Where do these answers come from?
