Job Market Online FAQs

  1. Are the articles and job postings from the print version of JobMarket also found in JobMarket Online?
    Yes. In fact, JobMarket Online does not only contain People at Work articles and job postings from the Inquirer's JobMarket. JobMarket Online transcends the limitations of print. It houses online-exclusive features like certain job postings, advertisements linked to promo sites or clients' corporate websites, additional job-seeking information, innovations like the resumé database for the usage of both job seekers and employers, plus an SMS component that enables users to access job openings through their mobile phones.

  2. As a user, do I need to pay for the services of JobMarket Online?
    No. Membership at JobMarket Online is FREE. Just register!

  3. What is my username?
    Your username is your complete e-mail address (ex. juandelacruz@mail.com).

  4. How do I log in if I've forgotten my password?
    Just click on the Forgot Password option in the Log In box on the Home page. A separate window will appear. Enter your username, and your password will be sent to your registered e-mail address.

  5. How do I change my password?
    Log in and click on My Accounts located at the upper part of the page. Click on Change Password and type in both your old and new passwords.

  6. How do I log in if I've forgotten my username (registered e-mail address)?
    E-mail us at customercare@inquirer.net or jobmarketonline@inquirer.net. Send us your full name and we will search our database for your account.

  7. Why can't I log in?
    There are several possible reasons:

    a. Your account is not activated. If you have not received or have accidentally deleted the Activation E-mail sent by JobMarket Online, just click on Resend Activation Code located at the Log In box on the Home page. Enter your username, and your activation code will be sent to your registered e-mail address.

    b. Your username is incorrect. Please be reminded that your username is your complete e-mail address (ex. juandelacruz@mail.com).

    c. Your password is incorrect. Please check your spelling again. Make sure that the Caps Lock option is not activated on your keyboard. If you've copied and pasted your password from another source, make sure that there is no excess space after the last letter. You may also use the Forgot Password option to verify your password.

    d. You need to change the settings of your cookies. On your browser, go to Tools > Internet Options > Privacy. The cookie's setting should either be low or medium, depending on your preference. The description for each setting is displayed when you click on it.

  8. How do I apply for a job online?

    Register for a JobMarket Online account first, then have your account activated. Log into Resumé Central and create your resumé. As soon as you have submitted your resumé into the database, you may search for jobs through the Job Finder. Just click on the Apply Now button at the bottom of the page, and your resumé will automatically be sent to the company.

  9. Why is there no "Submit" button at the end of the page?
    The page did not load properly. Refresh the page and re-enter the data. Unfortunately, data is lost whenever you refresh a page. To be safe, scroll down to the end of the page first before you fill out the forms, especially in Resumé Central where there are many fields.

  10. Why don't some of the job postings have an "Apply Now" button at the bottom of the page?
    Some companies prefer to have the resumés of their applicants e-mailed to them through a specified e-mail address, while others prefer to have the resumés hand-delivered to their offices.

  11. What does "Jm Client" mean?
    "Jm Client" is a company with its name withheld for its own purposes. It may or may not have an existing job posting on the site.

  12. What does "No Result" on the Job Finder mean?
    "No result" means that the Job Finder tool has not found any job opening that matches your preferences. Kindly try searching again with different fields.

  13. What is the "Deactivate my resumé" button for?
    Deactivating your resumé blocks your resumé from being viewed by companies (employers) subscribed to JobMarket Online, when they look for online applicants. Users usually deactivate their resumés when they already have jobs and are not looking for other jobs at the moment.

  14. How do companies get applicants through JobMarket Online?
    After posting their job ads on both print (JobMarket) and online (content from the print version uploaded into JobMarket Online / advertising through online only), companies get resumés via two different ways:

    a. Active - Companies search for applicants in our database based on the qualifications that they need.
    b. Passive - Job seekers submit their applications to the companies through JobMarket Online, or by hand-delivering their resumés to the companies as instructed.

  15. What are Job Alerts?
    Job Alerts are weekly newsletters delivered to your registered e-mail address. They contain the latest job postings on JobMarket Online, based on the categories that you select upon subscription. Subscription for Job Alerts is FREE.

  16. How do I subscribe to Job Alerts?
    Just click on the Job Alerts button on the upper right side portion of the Home page of JobMarket Online. You will be directed to a subscription page. Don't forget to click on "Submit" after you've filled up the form.
