At Jobicy, we have a dedicated team that manually verifies each job listing before it is posted on our website. This includes checking the companyβs website (age, WHOIS, etc.), social media profiles, and online reviews to ensure that the company is legitimate and has a good reputation.
It’s a rigorous process, and it’s important for our users to know that, on average, 6 out of 10 vacancies submitted to us do not pass this initial verification and are not allowed to be published.
Listings that successfully pass our review are marked with a “Verified job posting” badge, indicating that the job post has been manually reviewed for authenticity and compliance.
Additionally, we require employers to provide detailed information about the job, including the job description, salary range (where applicable), and application process, to ensure that job seekers have a clear understanding of the position before applying. We also encourage job seekers to report any suspicious job listings or fraudulent activity they might encounter.
In addition to manually verifying each job listing, we also have a set of guidelines that employers must follow when posting a job. These guidelines include providing a company website, social media profiles, and a detailed job description. We also require employers to provide a valid company email address and contact information for the job posting.
We take the issue of fraudulent job listings very seriously and actively monitor our website for any suspicious activity. If a job listing is found to be fraudulent, we will remove the listing and take steps to prevent the employer from posting future job listings on our website.
We also provide resources and tips for job seekers to help them avoid job scams and identify legitimate job opportunities. This includes information on common job scams, tips for researching companies and job listings, and advice on how to protect personal information during the job search process.
Overall, we are committed to providing a safe and reliable platform for job seekers to find legitimate remote job opportunities.
