title

I have 700+ title tag duplicates showing in WMT.

enter image description here

Every first link in that picture is as duplicate link of second one. I don't know from where the first link got indexed by Google when that link doesn't exist in the site. It's showing the title of every page as link.

Original link: http://www.sitename.com/job/407/Swedish-plus-Any-other-Nordic-Language-Customer-Service-Representative-Dublin-Ireland.

Duplicate link: http://www.sitename.com/job/407/Swedish-plus-Any-other-Nordic-Language-Customer-Service-Representative-Dublin-Ireland-Ireland.

How can this happen? I have checked entire site I didn't find where the second version is linked.

I have no images linked to with duplicated version of URL.
