FAQ for Job Seekers

Why does RetailJobs.com charge job seekers?
Most job boards make their money from employers and treat job seekers as an afterthought — which is exactly why searching for a job usually means juggling ten different sites, re-uploading your resume everywhere, and never knowing which listings are even still open. We flip that. Because job seekers are paying customers here, our incentive is to actually get you hired, not just rack up page views.

What do I get for the subscription?
Full access to every retail job we aggregate — pulled daily from multiple job sources and combined in one place — plus the ability to apply directly through RetailJobs.com instead of getting bounced between five different company career sites, some companies may require you to apply directly though.

How much does it cost?
$1 per week, $3 per month, or $30 per year — whichever fits how you search. The annual plan is the best value if you're serious about landing something soon. Rates may change in the future, but you'll always know exactly what you're paying before you're charged.

Isn't $1 a week a strange thing to charge for job seekers?
It's small on purpose. It's not a paywall meant to gatekeep jobs — it's a filter that keeps the platform focused on people who are seriously looking, not casual browsers. That's also what keeps the experience fast and uncluttered for everyone using it.

Why not just use free job boards?
You can, and many people do — and get lost in the process. Free boards are flooded with expired postings, duplicate listings, and applications that vanish into a black hole. We aggregate the retail-specific postings that matter and skip the noise, so you're not spending hours a week just to find five jobs actually worth applying to.

Will my resume actually get seen?
That's the core problem we built RetailJobs.com to solve. On big general job boards, your resume is one of thousands in a queue. We're focused specifically on retail, which means fewer applicants competing for the same role and a shorter, more direct path between you and the hiring manager.

Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. There's no lock-in — cancel your subscription whenever you want and you won't be charged again after your current billing period ends.

What kinds of jobs will I find here?
Retail positions across store associates, management, corporate retail roles, and more — sourced from a range of job feeds and brought into one simple place to search and apply.

Who is this for?
Job seekers who are actually motivated to find retail work quickly and don't want to waste time managing accounts on ten different sites. If you're serious about the search, the subscription pays for itself the moment it saves you from missing the right listing.

FAQ for Employers

How do we get our jobs included on RetailJobs.com?

You can post jobs directly to Retail Jobs, these appear as Featured Job Posts and get over 6x more applicants than a Standard Job Post. There is no fee to post jobs, you may purchase the featured job option though.

Why should we purchase Featured Jobs when our jobs are already posted on RetailJobs.com?

RetailJobs.com posts thousands of Standard job posts on their site that were posted somewhere on the web (your careers page, LinkedIn, Indeed etc). We do this for free for the entire retail industry, in order to benefit the industry as a whole. However, paid job postings that appear as Featured Job Postings will be displayed on top of the search results significantly improving chances of applicants viewing your jobs.

What is a Standard Job Post?
A standard job post is free. This option is available for all Employers to post.
What is a Featured Job Post?
A featured job post is a paid job post purchased by a company. These will be pinned to the top of the jobs list for a duration you specify. After this period has expired, the job will retain a darker border to make it stand out, but will be ordered in the list as Standard Job Post.

We have a lot of jobs to post, do you do bulk discounts?

Yes, please review our Five (5) Featured Job Postings or our Enterprise Plan which allows you to post up to 100 Featured Job Posting at discounted prices. If you would like to post all jobs from your careers page, please reach out to us at Sales@RetailJobs.com and we'll give you a quote.

Will you be able to import jobs if we provide a XML or API feed?

Please reach out to Sales@RetailJobs.com and we will work with you on importing jobs based on the XML or API feed you provide.

How do we apply our promo code to receive discounts?

If you have received a promo code, please use the code on the payment page when you are making a payment. Please look for a link “Have a promo code?” next to the “Total” amount and enter the promo code. The “Total” amount will apply the discount and display your discounted Total.

There are already several Featured Companies, will there be room for our company on the homepage if we become a Featured Company too?

The display order of Featured Companies is randomized each time the homepage loads to make sure every Featured Company gets an equal share of impressions (you can test this by going to the home page and refreshing).

How can I get our company logo on job posts?

Once you’ve purchased a Featured Job Post or become a Featured Company we will add your logo to your profile and it will be included on all of your present and future Standard and Featured Job Posts.
