A.
Employers register and choose from our selection of subscriptions to advertise their vacancy/ies. Registered employers have total control over their adverts and account and are able to choose how they would like to be contacted: email, phone, private messaging system or they can display their contact details on their job advert.
Jobseekers register for free to create an account. Jobseekers have total control over their account and can upload videos, CV/Resume and photos to their jobseeker profile. They can choose how they would like to be contacted: email, phone or private messaging system but they cannot display their contact details on their public profile.
A.No. This is reflected in our charges. We believe that you, the Employer, are in the best place to select the right candidates for your horses and team which is why we make as much information available about the Jobseeker as possible.
A.
All Jobseekers have a facility in their account to upload their references, CV/resume and photos. However, we cannot guarantee all Jobseekers will upload them for different reasons but most will provide them upon request.
A.
No, unless in exceptional circumstances. There is a reason for this though! Because job adverts become immediately visible on the site and/or jobseeker access is immediate upon payment of subscription, we have no way of telling whether or not contact has been made and our contract is fulfilled once payment has been received.
A.Some Jobseekers, particularly those from most non EU countries, require a visa. We do not issue visas. The Jobseeker must apply to the embassy/consulate in their own country, of the country they are going to. This process usually takes around 2 weeks. Some applications can take longer especially if they are asked to sit a second interview. The employer will need to provide any supporting documentation to the Jobseekers before the Jobseeker makes her/his application.
A.
The Jobseeker's account status is shown at the top of their profile page. If the Jobseeker has been placed or is no longer looking for a job their Account Status will show Placed or Not looking.
Sometimes a Jobseeker can forget to update their status. Should you contact a Jobseeker and they have already found a job then please contact support so that we can update their status on their behalf.
The Signed-In, Recent Sign-Ins and Unread Msgs fields of the profile's Status provide a good indication of whether a Jobseeker is still looking.
Signed-In shows when the Jobseeker last signed into their account, Recent Sign-Ins shows the number of times the Jobseeker signed in, in the last 14 days and Unread Msgs shows the number of unread messages in the Jobseeker's Inbox.
