Frequently Asked Questions
Why are there no links under the job posting?
The jobs with no links are expired positions, meaning employers are no longer hiring for this particular position. We keep these jobs on our site so that job searchers can track company hiring patterns and have more information on open and filled positions at different companies.
Why are there so many expired posts?
JobSearcher’s mission is to give job searchers access to “every job ever.” Therefore, we show both active and expired job listings so candidates can track company hiring patterns and do extensive company research.
How can I see only Active jobs?
If you are only interested in seeing active job listings:
Search for your desired job title
Use our dynamic search filters to select “active.”
Why are my email alerts full of expired job postings?
“Expired” job postings are jobs that are not being sponsored by employers anymore. In most cases, the job still exists at the company, but they may not be looking to fill the role.
JobSearcher sends these jobs in email alerts so job searchers can find jobs and roles that are perfect for them. If you received the perfect job, but it is not being sponsored anymore, it is a great opportunity to reach out to the hiring manager. Reference the job to see if it is still available. Then, ask if they have any similar roles they are hiring for. This extra initiative by job searchers goes a long way, and hiring managers are usually willing to help.
I found the perfect match, but the role is expired. What should I do?
If you’ve found the perfect match, but the role is expired, you still have a few options.
Click on the company link or search for similar positions at the same company.
Contact the hiring manager to see if they have any similar positions or other open positions that you may be interested in.
Use details from the job description (job title, skills, etc.) to find similar job listings from other companies.
I searched for a job in my area. Why do I see results in an adjacent state?
It is possible to see job listings in other states, especially if you live close to the border. Be sure to refine your location and keep the location radius as small as possible to see job listings closest to you.
Also, a company may be headquartered in one statebut hiring in another. So, be sure to read the details in the job description.
Why is my 7-year-old job ad showing up on your site?
JobSearcher is a job archive that lists jobs from across the web. We aim to show "every job ever," whether old or new. We do this to benefit candidates' research strategies, especially when job searching and learning about companies. It is important to note that your expired job postings will not have a link to apply. Therefore, job searchers can't apply to your closed positions.
If you see an active apply link or your job posting displays personal information, please get in touch with our support team to get the information removed.
I posted a job, but I don’t see it when I search for it.
Once you’re logged in, you can find all of your job postings in your dashboard. Navigate to the top right-hand corner of the page and click “Job Posts”. Here, you’ll find your job, which links back to your job posting’s page on JobSearcher.
Why are you sending me jobs I am not interested in?
Our daily and weekly job alerts are based on search queries from the user. If you are not actively searching for jobs on JobSearcher, you may receive uninteresting jobs. If you are active on JobSearcher, try making your searches more specific by entering job titles, skills, company names, etc. As a result, your job alerts will contain more relevant information.
Where are the job’s “Apply” links taking me?
Once you press a job’s “apply” link, you are no longer on JobSearcher’s website. When employers post positions on our site, they include an external link to whatever tool or site they use to collect applications. So, when you apply for a job, it is directly with whatever tool the company provides. As a result, JobSearcher never collects any personal information.
Why can’t I find my role?
If you are still looking for a particular role, enter more details into your search queries. Think of job titles, skills, companies, and tasks most relevant to the position you’d like to apply for.
