About the jobs we share
A recruiter checks every job for signs of a scam before we share it. Even so, the jobs come from employers and job sites we don't control, and openings can close or change. Please use your own judgment before applying. A real employer will never ask you to pay to apply or for your bank details before hiring you.
No job guarantee
No one can promise you a job. We make your resume stronger and show you good local openings. Whether you're hired is up to the employer.
Your information
Your resume and personal details stay yours. We use them only to provide our services, as explained in our Privacy Policy.

We work hard to give you good service, but we provide it as it is. To the extent the law allows, our total responsibility to you for any claim is limited to the amount you paid us.
