Mission Statement

JawberDoo.com is a national database of jawb links that can easily be searched by industry, category, specialization, and location, at no cost to jawb seekers.  Our purpose is to link jawb seekers with employers at a nominal cost to the employer, while reducing the risks of doing business over the Internet.  Site ads are used as an additional revenue source, but they should be tasteful and useful to users.  Any ad that does not meet these criteria, or impacts the performance of the site, will be removed.

JawberDoo is the result of an idea that began while watching a CNBC jobs special.  There was a discussion about hidden jobs, and after some research it was learned that the only sites dedicated to listing these jobs had some significant issues.  It was very difficult to obtain a useful list of open jobs and there is no way of knowing which listings are real and which are fake (i.e. phishing schemes) as anyone can create posts.

To reduce these risks, we have implemented the following listing rules:

  1. Jawbs may only be listed by the employer (domestic or commercial) that is providing the position.
  2. Agency agents are not permitted to create listings.
  3. Employers may make an offer pending a reference/background check, but they may not attempt to contact the references of applicants until after an offer is made.
  4. Prior to making an offer, employers and their agents may not require an applicant to provide references.
  5. The hiring company is charged a nominal service fee (waived during our test phases) of $1/day for each listing and type (i.e. Jawb Seeker or Agency) with a 7 day minimum per listing per order.
  6. The service fee may only be paid by a check (electronic or physical) drawn upon an account owned by, and under the name of, the employer.

Employer agents will be able to create listings that are visible to select agencies or all agencies on a listing-by-listing basis. Agencies will be required to use other resources to find applicants, they may not use this site for such purposes.

WARNING
Those who violate any of these rules shall be held legally and financially responsible for any and all damages that are the direct or indirect result of such violation, without limiation.

Future plans for this site include:

  • Informational pages to help users with their resumes, and how to interview.
  • Forums for users to share their experiences, and to help others with their jawb search.
  • A standardized XML resume format and open source resume creation application.

It is our quest to provide jawb seekers with a list of all the jobs in their area that they may be qualified for, and to do it without cheating them out of their hard earned cash.
