How do post subscriptions work?

We only want to host current and non-filled positions, for an optimal candidate and employed experience. It prevents candidates applying to jobs that aren't open anymore (and thus employers receiving unneeded applications) and that employers don't have to repost a job if they don't fill the vacancy within the first month. When a job isn't cancelled within the initial 30 days duration, it automatically renews and will bill you for another month. The job then extends for 30 days, is bumped to the top of the listings and granted its plan's perks again, which can include; social media, newsletter mentions, and featured badges.

We know how frustrating it is to come across outdated job posts that are no longer accepting applications.

Companies can manually repost if still available. - Paid job listings also last for 30 days but follow a subscription model. If a company doesn’t cancel the subscription, the job post automatically refreshes — encouraging them to cancel once the role is filled.
