Frequently Asked Questions JobisJob

JobisJob is a search engine for job offers, not a job board. In one simple search, we will help you to find the most interesting job offers from tens of major job boards, saving you all the time you would spend browsing each of those websites.

JobisJob includes all the job listings from major job boards and we continue to add new sites every day.
We dynamically monitor job listings on these websites on a continuous basis, so you can find the very latest jobs listed on every site.
In order to maintain data integrity and quality for our users we only include jobs from reputable sources which meet a consistent high level of quality.

Job offers are ranked solely by relevance or date. We do not accept payment to include jobs in the search engine or to improve their ranking. The only exception to this are sponsored job offers, which are clearly marked as such.

No. We're the search engine, not the hiring company. To follow up on an application, contact the company you're applying to directly. They'll know the status of your application, we don't.

You're probably not the only one looking for a better job. So if you find a job that's not for you, but could be perfect for someone you know, click on the 'More options…' link beneath the job offer. Then using the 'Email to a Friend' link you can send it to you or your friends.

JobisJob always tries to give you a maximum of information on the job offers in our result list. That’s what 'More options…' is all about. Here you can find additional services related to the job offer, like recommended searches closely related to the result you are inquiring for, a link for locating the company that is advertising the vacancy on a map, or for sending the job offer to a friend for whom you think it might be of use.

After you've run a search, click on job titles to view the job offer in detail. This takes you out of JobisJob to the website listing the job. Application instructions will vary from site to site. You cannot enter your resume and apply to jobs directly from JobisJob.
For jobs where we can't locate the application page, please, read carefully through the 'How to apply' section.
Application for job offers found using JobisJob always takes place outside JobisJob, namely in our providers’ websites. How to apply for a job offer found using JobisJob depends entirely on the providers’ application system, so unfortunately JobisJob cannot give you any assistance on this issue.

Please do not send us any CVs. We do not have any CV database, so uploading your CV in JobisJob is not possible.
Please read carefully through the application details of the job offer because there you will find the details on if and how a CV can be submitted.
JobisJob is a search engine and we automatically extract the job offers from various sources, and do not have any further information on neither the companies nor the positions offered. For this reason, we simply would not know what to do with your CV.

While we do a great deal to reduce the probability that you will see an older/expired listing on the JobisJob site, old/expired listings can appear if the source site (where we pulled the information from) still has the job active on their site.
If you are an employer that would like to have a listing pulled, please contact the source site directly. The job would quickly clear from our results after the source site removed it.

If you prefer excluding jobs advertised by a particular company or job board from your lists of results and job alerts, you can do this by clicking on the link Block found in the list of results.
To remember which companies and job boards you currently exclude from your searches, go to My Shortlist. In Blocked Jobs you will find your list of blocked sources, and a way to unblock them individually, if you wish so. (Registered users only)
Please take into consideration that blocking entire job boards can reduce the number of search results drastically.

• scam/spam: Use this flag to alert us about jobs that are a scam
• expired: Signalizes that the job has expired in job board where it was originally posted
• broken link: Is for jobs you can’t access because the ulr is invalid
• duplicate: Indicates that the job is advertised more than once on JobisJob

Posting jobs on JIJ is entirely free of charge.

Please, do not post your job listing for:

• Work-from-home opportunities
• Barter or volunteer positions
• Deferred pay positions
• Multi-level Marketing (MLM) jobs or positions that require a monetary investment by the jobseeker

There are two reasons why a job you have posted is not found in our list of results:

• It might still be pending for validation. Please, allow two working days for validation.
• Your job offer might have been rejected; in this case you will have received an email informing you on the rejection of your job offer.

To post additional jobs, sign into your Employers Area and then click the 'Post a Job' button.

Job offers are rejected if:

• They don't contain explicit contact data, this is, a contact address, phone number, email, or a job offer URL that links directly to a job offer posted on a website other than JobisJob.
• They do not comply with our quality standards outlined in our Legal Terms.

The status of each job offer helps you to manage your job offers:

• Pending validation: The job offer is still to be revised by the JobisJob Team. The validation process usually takes up to 2 working days.
• Active: The job offer is online and does form part of job seekers` search result.
• Paused: Indicates that you have temporally stopped advertising this particular job. You can reactivate it at any time.
• Rejected: Your job offer was not validated because it did not contain explicit contact data, or because it did not comply with our quality standards.
• Expired: The job has been posted more than 30 days ago, and has gone offline automatically. You can republish at any time.

To edit a job offer, sign into your Employers Account and click on the link 'Edit' of the job offer you would like to modify. Please note that edited job offers will go back to the pending validation status, independently of the status they have been in before you carried out the modification.

If you would like to stop advertising a job on JobisJob, simply log into your Employers Account and use either the 'Pause' or the 'Delete' link of the job offer. In both cases the job will go offline immediately, yet while paused jobs can be republished to convenience, deleted jobs will be removed from your job offer list permanently.
