Collection and Use of Information
Registration for, and use of, this Website is voluntary and designed to facilitate the search for employment and hiring.  Upon registration, HireFinders collects job seeker's email address, anonymous username and password.  In order to publically advertise a job seeker's anonymous profile and apply for positions through HireFinders, job seekers are required to create a “Profile” containing their name, address, resume and employment information.  This information will remain secure and confidential.  Your complete profile will only be revealed to an employer after you apply to a position; and shared only with the employer with which you applied. 

 

In order to provide you with the broadest exposure to potential employment opportunities, only the anonymous information you place in your Profile may be shared with HireFinders-affiliated companies or with external websites. Neither HireFinders, nor its affiliates, distributes personal information for advertising purposes.

 

HireFinders attempts to limit access (headhunters and employment agencies are prohibited from using HireFinders) of the searchable anonymous job seeker profiles only to potential employers, hiring managers, direct hiring companies and human resource professionals (“Employers”). However, HireFinders does not and cannot guarantee that other parties (including parties disguised as employers that have circumvented HireFinders’ approval process) will not gain access to the Website. HireFinders does not provide a searchable resume database and, therefore, the job seeker controls the decision present their Profile to potential Employers.  HireFinders hereby specifically disclaims any responsibility and or liability concerning any use of information job seekers provide to Employers.
