How to use Hiringspace ⇒ Do I have to sign up to search jobs on Hiringspace.com?
o No, you can search for jobs without
signing up. You would need to sign up if you decide to apply for a job. ⇒ Does this site cost anything?
o Zero, zilch, NADA. This site costs nothing
to anyone. ⇒ How do I apply for a job that I find?
o You can click on "reach out" link on the
job details to reach out to the person who posted the job. If the person who

away by clicking on the email link. ⇒
How do I
search for jobs?
o You can do this using quick-search
jobs, use search agents (if you have created any). ⇒ What is career networking all about?
o Networking is one of the most important -- if not
the most important -- activities that job-seekers need to master to
be truly successful in your job-search. Because the vast majority of job
openings are never advertised, job-seekers need to have a network of contacts
-- a career network -- that can provide support, information, and job leads. ⇒ Why should I create a profile?
o We've designed a way for you to create a professional
career profile. You build it, we host it. Whether you are actively looking for
a job, need a place to manage all of your professional contacts, or are hiring
new people, you can use it to showcase your skills, experiences, even your
company or team. To get started, just click the "Sign up" link on the
start page. We'll ask you for a few pieces of information - your email address,
password, name, and location - and then send you a quick note to verify your
email address. Once you've finished this, you can start building your own
profile. A note on privacy - if you ever need to deactivate your profile, just
look for the option on your Account
Settings page. ⇒ Why would I use the site if I'm not looking for a job?
o Many people use our site to create a career or
professional profile that includes all of their career-related information,
sort of like an online resume brought to life with pictures, blog posts,
questions and answers, and tags. Our networking tools let you manage your
professional relationships, keep track of people that you've worked with in the
past, and maintain a list of references. We also have discussion forums, career
networking tools, advice columns which you would find very helpful even if you
are not looking for a job. Profile Help ⇒ How do I change my email address?
