unfilled once. So, where does is fail??

one way

=SUMPRODUCT((B2:B22="job1")*1)-MIN(SUMPRODUCT((B2:B22="job1")*(A2:A22="unfilled") ),1)

I have a list of data.

Mike JOB1
Karen JOB2
Unfilled JOB1
Unfilled JOB2
Unfilled JOB1
Alex JOB1
Alex JOB1

I want to count the unique person that works on a job, however
"unfilled"
always denotes a new person and therefore I do not want it to be unique.
eg.
searching for "JOB 1" should give me 4 because i do not want to count
Alex
twice but I do want to count Unfilled twice.

Any help appreciated,

Ellen
