Terms of use

The rules for posting, searching and applying on Canada Careers. Last updated .

By using Canada Careers you agree to these terms. Please read them — they are short. If you are posting on behalf of a company you confirm you are authorised to do so.

1. Accounts

You must be at least 16 years old and provide accurate information. Keep your password private; you are responsible for activity under your account. We may suspend accounts that break these terms.

2. Job postings

  • Postings must describe a genuine, lawful job located in or open to Canada, and must comply with the Canadian Human Rights Act and provincial human rights and employment standards legislation.
  • Tagging a posting with a community (Professionals, New Immigrants, Indigenous, Refugees, Youth) signals that the employer welcomes candidates from that community. It does not permit excluding other candidates on prohibited grounds.
  • No fees may be charged to candidates, no multi-level-marketing or “pay to work” schemes, and no collection of candidate data outside the application flow.
  • Every posting must give at least one complete work address (street address, city, province and postal code; several addresses may be listed on one posting) and the employer’s operating name where it differs from the legal name.
  • We may edit, decline or remove any posting that breaches these rules, without refund.

3. Pricing and billing

Each posting is a subscription priced by the account that pays: employers $14.99 + GST per posting per month (5% GST, $15.74 in total); third party consultants $9.99 + GST per posting per month (5% GST, $10.49 in total). All prices are in Canadian dollars. The price shown at checkout is locked in for that posting, charged when the posting goes live and again every month until you cancel. Receipts for every charge can be viewed and downloaded from Billing. Cancelling stops future charges; the posting stays live until the end of the paid period, or is removed immediately if you choose so. Charges already made are non-refundable except where required by law. Prices may change with 30 days’ notice, applying at your next renewal.

4. Job seekers

Searching and applying is free. You are responsible for the accuracy of your profile and resume. Applications are delivered to the employer, who decides how to respond; Canada Careers does not guarantee interviews, replies or employment.

5. Acceptable use

Do not scrape the site, send spam, impersonate others, upload malware, or interfere with the service. Content you submit remains yours; you grant us a licence to display it for the purpose of running the job bank.

6. Liability

The service is provided “as is”. To the extent permitted by law, Canada Careers is not liable for indirect or consequential loss, and our total liability for any claim is limited to the fees you paid us in the preceding 12 months. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under consumer protection legislation in your province.

7. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein. Questions? Use the contact page. Our privacy policy explains how we handle personal information.
