Here are many frequently asked questions (FAQs) to help you navigate our website. The first set of questions are about the Seeker area, and the second set refer to the Employer area. If you have additional questions, you can always contact us at support [at] jobswagger.com

Seeker

How do I register a seeker account?
Simply go to the registration area of the website and complete the sign-up form. You must then activate your account by following a link in a confirmation email that we send you. After this is complete, you can login as a normal user.

How old do I have to be to sign up?
Because the legal age for working in the United States is 14, you must be at least 14 to register on our website. You confirm your age during the registration process.

I’m only a teenager -- will there be jobs open for my age group?
Yes! JobSwagger.com specifically caters to teens, students, and anyone around the ages of 14-25.

I don’t understand the My Home area...
This is the first page you will see when you login. It displays a simple summary of the main areas of the website; things like information about nearby jobs, your profile, resources, and account details. What’s the deal with the “profile”?

Your profile acts like a resume. It is similar in content, but simpler and more straightforward. This serves as an introductory correspondence with employers, who can then interview you further or have you fill out additional information as needed. Am I required to put personal information in my profile?
There is no requirement to do this - however, some features may require you to list certain information. For example, you must input your zipcode and age to be able to use the nearby jobs feature in the My Jobs section. We recommend you put as much information in the profile as you feel comfortable with.

Who can see my profile?
Your profile is only viewable by employers to whom you send the profile when applying for a job. Once that listing expires, the employer no longer has access to your profile. We store your information in our databases, which are secure. We do not sell information to third parties. Please see our Privacy Policy for further details.

Employer

How do I register an employer account?
Simply go to the registration area of the website and complete the sign-up form. You must then activate your account by following a link in a confirmation email that we send you. After this is complete, you can login as a normal employer.

What’s the deal with credits? I thought listings were free.
Listings are completely free. Each employer account starts off with 10,000 credits, with which to purchase job listings. If you would like more credits, simply email us.
