Terms of use.

These terms govern the use of the Hello Opportunity website. They are written in plain English deliberately; a term nobody can read is a term nobody agreed to.

We are an index of vacancies. We publish what employers have advertised, make it searchable, and tell you when things close.

We are not a recruiter, not an employment agency, and not a party to any application. We do not screen candidates for employers, we do not represent candidates to employers, and we take no fee on a hire. Applications go to the employer’s own address, so we cannot tell you whether yours arrived, whether it was read, or why you did not hear back.

Confirm the details with the employer before you act on them. That is not boilerplate: most listings here were advertised publicly by the employer and not yet confirmed with them, and details change after a notice runs.

Be particularly careful with a listing that names no employer. There are currently 15 such roles in this index. We list them because the vacancy is real, and we say plainly on each one that we cannot tell you who is hiring. Find out who you are dealing with before you send anything personal.

Every listing carries one of three states and says which on its own page.

Posted by the employer — they published it here themselves.
Confirmed by the employer — the employer has claimed the page and confirmed it.
Publicly advertised, not yet confirmed — the employer advertised it publicly and we have not confirmed it with them. Every one of these carries a correction link.

We keep the identity of the employer separate from the state of the listing, because they are different assurances. A verified government agency can carry an unconfirmed listing, and conflating the two is how a trust badge stops meaning anything.

The closing date is the field this whole service runs on, so it has to be honest about its own provenance.

Where a notice states a closing date, we publish that date. Where it states none, we keep the role live for 21 days from the day we found it and label that as our estimate everywhere it appears — on the card, on the page, in the filter and in the internal record. It is not presented as the employer’s deadline, and such roles are excluded from anything headed “closing this week”.

A role whose closing date has passed stays at its own address, marked closed, with no apply action. We do not delete it: the page is often the only public record that the post existed, and the difference between “we never had it” and “you missed the deadline” is worth preserving.

We publish the facts of a vacancy — the role, the grade, the salary, the closing date and how to apply — and not a copy of anyone’s advertisement. Where material belongs to someone else, we respect their terms and take it down on request.

If your organisation’s vacancies are listed here, a page already exists for it. Claiming that page is free, creates no obligation to post anything, and can be undone.

A claim is verified before it is granted, and how it was verified is recorded and shown on the page.

A claim belongs to the organisation, not to the person who made it. It carries named members, the first claimant can invite colleagues, and it lapses if the verifying address stops working. Every claimed page carries a visible route to dispute it.

A claimed page can correct a listing. It cannot erase its history: every change is logged with who made it and when, and the original version is retained.

Ask us to remove your listings and we will. You do not have to claim anything first, you do not have to give a reason, and it costs nothing.

Posting a role on Hello Opportunity is not offered yet.

An account is free. You are responsible for the contact detail you give us being one you control.

Do not use this service to scrape it wholesale, to impersonate an employer or another person, to post a vacancy that does not exist, or to solicit money from candidates. We will remove a listing and close an account for any of those, and we do not need to warn you first.

No employer should ever ask you to pay for a job. Not a registration fee, not a processing fee, not a uniform deposit, not a training payment, and not money to release a first salary.

No listing on this site can take a payment from you. We won’t ask you for a bank detail; if someone claiming to be us does, it isn’t us.

Report it on the listing, or through the corrections route.

Every listing carries a correction link. You do not need an account and you do not have to leave your name.

Things we will not do, stated so they can be held against us: we will not resolve a parish by passing a location string to a geocoder; we will not show a salary figure we inferred without saying that we inferred it; and we will not delete a role because its closing date passed.

We take reasonable care that the index is accurate, and the review step before a listing publishes exists for exactly that reason. We cannot guarantee it. A listing may be out of date, a detail may be wrong, and a vacancy may be filled before its stated closing date.

To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for a loss arising from relying on a listing without confirming it with the employer, from an application not reaching an employer, or from anything that happens on a site we link to.

Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited.

These terms are governed by the laws of Jamaica, and the courts of Jamaica have jurisdiction.

If we change these terms materially we will say so on this page. Continuing to use the service after a change means accepting it.

These terms are a draft and are not in force. Nothing on this page should be relied on until it has been reviewed by a Jamaican attorney and that statement has been removed.
