Applying to jobs

Be careful with postings that promise unrealistic outcomes, hide company details, push you off-platform early, or request money and sensitive data.

If you spot a suspicious job, report it from the posting, add clear context, and avoid sharing sensitive data while the case is reviewed.

Explaining why you apply helps the company understand your real interest, your fit for the role, and your priorities before moving forward.

Your Applications dashboard groups everything by status and shows read status and unread messages, so you can follow each process clearly.

Control your public profile, Talent Database visibility, and job alert settings so companies can find you or keep your profile private.

Get on Board moderates jobs to screen for scam postings, and you can report suspicious listings with the button at the bottom of the job ad.

Your salary expectation is the amount you would accept for the role. Enter the monthly USD value shown in the form and keep it realistic.

The Responds quickly label shows a company has replied to applicants fast in the past. It is a historical signal, not a promise.

Get on Board works in mobile browsers, so you can search jobs, apply, upload a CV, and check your applications from your phone.

Add your LinkedIn profile URL to your Get on Board profile or application so recruiters can review it alongside your CV and other links.

A hybrid role mixes on-site and remote days and requires living near the office location set by the company for those in-person days.

Follow a company from its profile or a job listing to see new roles in your feed and receive notifications you can manage anytime.

Get on Board extracts the text from your resume so recruiters can search it and review your skills. The original file is kept intact.

The Cultural Fit test reflects your work culture preferences. Answer honestly and choose whether to share results with companies.

Remote jobs are listed as fully remote or locally remote. Check the modality and residency rules on the listing before applying.

If a job is closed or unpublished, your application stays in your list. The company may still reply, but the process might end.

Companies can choose a discard reason, but they may not always share details. If they message you, you’ll see it in your application and email.

After you apply, your application appears in your dashboard with Sent or Seen status. Companies handle their own steps, so response times vary.

The Adaptability Quiz is a short self-assessment that shows how you approach change and learning at work across four dimensions.

Salary expectations are usually gross (before taxes). The application form tells you whether the job expects gross or net amounts.

You can edit a draft application from the Your applications area before sending it.

When you withdraw an application, your profile moves to the discarded stage. The company sees the withdrawal and cannot message you on the platform.

You can import your LinkedIn profile to auto-fill experience and studies when applying, then save that data for future applications.

Your Applications list can show whether a company has seen your application. Job postings may also show response time signals.

If your LinkedIn URL fails validation, make sure it’s a full http(s) profile link to linkedin.com/in/.

If you see “Enter a valid value” when applying, verify required fields and salary limits, then confirm the salary is a whole number.

If you apply for a non-remote job abroad, you will be asked to confirm you can legally work in the job’s location.

After you apply, you can message the company from the Messages tab in your application to ask questions about the process.

Before an invitation, companies only see your name and public links. Contact info and CV stay hidden until they spend a credit to unlock you.

Get on Board does not manage hiring decisions, so each company is responsible for notifying applicants about their status.

If a company does not comply with what is offered in an ad, use the report button at the bottom of the job. We review every report.

If you deleted an application by mistake, you can recover it from Your Applications or contact us to restore it.
