Where FindFreeJobs job listings come from
By FindFreeJobs Editorial TeamReviewed
FindFreeJobs shows roles from four permitted sources: authorized job APIs, licensed job feeds, employer career pages, and job links users paste themselves. It does not scrape job boards, holds no privileged access to any platform, and always links out to the original posting so you can verify every detail at the source.
Key takeaways
- Four permitted sources: authorized APIs, licensed feeds, employer career pages, user-submitted links.
- No scraping, no reverse-engineered access, no undisclosed partnerships.
- Every role links to its original posting — that posting is the authority on salary, location and sponsorship.
- This MVP ships clearly labelled demo listings so the workflow can be evaluated end to end.
- Your resume and tracker data stay in your browser in this MVP and can be deleted at any time.
The four sources we permit
- Authorized job APIs: providers whose terms explicitly permit programmatic access for job discovery.
- Licensed feeds: aggregated inventory supplied under a licence that allows display and linking.
- Employer career pages: public postings published by the employer for distribution.
- Links you submit: any posting URL you paste, which we parse into the same match, tailor and track workflow.
What we never do
- Scrape LinkedIn, Indeed, or any job board.
- Claim partnerships, endorsements or special access we do not have.
- Invent salaries, sponsorship status or company details to fill a gap in a listing.
- Sell ranking position. Ads are labelled and kept out of the match order.
- Publish user counts, success rates or testimonials we cannot substantiate.
Freshness, duplicates and accuracy
Where a source provides a posted date, we show it and prefer newer inventory. Roles that appear from more than one source are deduplicated by employer, title and location, keeping the record that links closest to the employer. Salary figures marked as estimated are estimates from the source or a stated range in the posting — never our own invention. If a detail in FindFreeJobs disagrees with the original posting, the original posting is correct.
Your data
In this MVP your resume text, preferences, matches and tracker entries are held in your browser's local storage. Nothing is required to try the product: no account, no card. You can clear everything from the resume page, which removes it from your device.
Honest limits
- Coverage will always be narrower than the largest marketplaces — that is the cost of only using permitted sources.
- Match scores are explainable heuristics, not validated predictions.
- Work-authorization signals are read from posting text and must be verified.
- We provide no immigration, legal or career advice.
Frequently asked questions

No. FindFreeJobs does not scrape job boards. Listings come from authorized APIs, licensed feeds, employer career pages, or job URLs users paste themselves.

No. There is no partnership, endorsement or privileged access. Comparison pages describe only publicly documented behaviour and link to each provider's own help centre.
Are the listings in the product real?
In this MVP the seeded cross-industry listings are clearly labelled demo data. Live inventory requires authorized sources, and any job you paste yourself is real by definition.
Where is my resume stored?
In this MVP your resume, matches and tracker data stay in your own browser's local storage. You can clear them at any time from the resume page.
How does FindFreeJobs make money if it is free?
