| 1. | Why should I use SpotLight247.com instead of other job search sites? |

| 1. | Why do you allow a four month listing, while other job sites only offer a one month job posting? |
| After many discussions with recruiters and employers like yourself, we have realized that one month is simply not enough time to find a quality employee for your company. Further research has shown that when most companies hire a new employee, the first 30-60 days are on a trial or probationary basis. Up to 20% of the jobs filled end up being terminated by either the employer or job-seeker. By allowing a 4 month posting, your job gets more exposure, you are given ample time to make a wise decision in a relaxed manner, and you are protected against repeated, expensive job postings. | |
| 2. | Why should I buy the package? |
| You have no obligation to purchase a package. You are free to pay as you go. However, we highly recommend purchasing a package because in addition to saving money up front, it also protects you against future price increases. When you purchase a package, you are also given free, unlimited access to our resume database for the duration of your package. Please keep in mind that these are very low, introductory prices. | |
| 3. | How much time do I have to use my job postings? |
| While our competitors only allow one year, even for large packages, we give you 3 years to use any package of 5 jobs or more. Keep in mind, you are still protected against future price increases. | |
| 4. | Do I need to pay extra to view resumes? |
| While our competitors charge thousands of dollars to view resumes, on SpotLight247.com, browsing resumes is free during the duration or your job posting, or the life of your package. | |
| 5. | How much does it cost to post jobs on SpotLight247.com? |
| Job Posting on SpotLight247.com starts at $39.95 for a 4 month job posting. We also allow employers to save even more by purchasing job postings in bulk, ranging from 5 jobs, and going up to 100 jobs. You are also allowed to search our resume database for free during the duration of your job posting. Keep in mind that other job search sites charge over $320 for a 30 day job posting, and that does not even include a single resume! | |
| 6. | What is Featured Company? |
