Quite a lot of employers are posting online claiming to be hiring, but candidates seem to be not getting any response after sending email/DM to that HR who posted.

I myself have applied to an entry level opening at a very well known and establish vehicles related product company. Literally entry level role with 6 months to 1.5yr YoE (I have 1YoE), yet I've not got any response. And they keep reposting the same opening over and over and over, to the point where I feel they are actually not hiring, but just updating their hiring work quotas as they were lazy AF HRs all through the FY23-24.

A common marketing practice to increase LinkedIn followers. Happens a lot

This is so true and we discovered this by chance. We're a small b2b co so LinkedIn presence is required for us both for customer discovery and as a smell test for companies checking us out. But after a year of actively posting stuff, we barely got 800 followers.

We were growing the team so put out 2 job listings (closed now though) and in a week we were up to 4000+ followers.

CEO has been joking that our recruiter is doing better social media management than our social media team, and that we should post job postings even if we don't intend to hire (and based on reply above I'm sure this is what many other companies are doing now)
