Spam

Top

There are multiple methods of spam and what qualifies as spam varies. 
For the most part, spam posts are "bulk posts".  Spamming, in this context, is the practice of posting an ad in large quantities (i.e. in bulk).

Spam/overposts can occur in a number of ways, such as:

  • The same (or substantially similar) ad posted repeatedly in the same category.
  • The same (or substantially similar) ad posted in multiple locations on Take It In Trade™.
  • A large volume of ads posted by the same user (i.e. excessive multiple posting).
  • Often these posts will contain commercial content and/or links to external sites.  It is common for scammers to publish a post to advertise another site which sells something.
  • Spamming can be used for purposes other than advertisements, such as religious or political purposes.  It can also be used for criminal purposes, such as to perpetrate various sorts of fraud or to lure people to various locations. See the section on Your Safety for more details on how to avoid spam and protect yourself.

Please remember that there are ads that could be posted in multiple locations on Take It In Trade™ and still be legitimate posts.  For example, some jobs or services are available in multiple locations.  What Take It In Trade™ is trying to prevent and control are things such as fake or junk posts, useless crowding on Take It In Trade™, members being taken advantage of or inconvenienced, etc.

In an effort to eliminate spam posts on Take It In Trade™ users are given the ability to "flag" any ad/post they believe is spam.  See "Flags" and "Flagging" for more details on how to flag a post believed to be spam.  In addition, you can Contact Us to report spam.

A job post/job advertisement will appear on the Take It In Trade™ public listings about 10 minutes after you post your ad.

To view your job post/job advertisement on the Take It In Trade™ public listings visit the Take It In Trade™ home page, and go to where it says Jobs. Click on the section under where it says Jobs that you picked as the "Category" when you created your job advertisement.  Note: Make sure that the location that is listed on your home page is the same as the location listed in your job ad.  If it is not the same location, click on the "Change Location" link on the middle near the top of the homepage. 

Note: You may need to click the refresh/reload button on your browser to update the page if your job post/job advertisement does not appear.
I have multiple job positions that I want to fill- can I post one ad for all of them?

Take It In Trade™ prefers that you include only one job position per job post. We want to keep the site as simple and easy to use as possible.  Advertising for more than one job position in the same post can confuse people searching for a specific job.  Therefore, if the job descriptions are different for the various positions you have available, we ask that you please post separate ads for each job.

Are there any type of job posts that are not allowed on Take It In Trade™?

Take It In Trade™ policies prohibits members from providing inaccurate, misleading or false information to Take It In Trade™ or to any other Take It In Trade™ member. 

In addition, please see the section on Are there any special rules or guidelines for recruiters? and the Terms of Use for other restrictions on posting and communication on Take It In Trade™.
What location should I post my job advertisement under?
It is best that you choose a location that is closest geographically to where the actual job position is located. There are both specific cities and general areas listed to choose from.  If the exact city is not listed under the "Location" drop down menu, it is best to pick the closest location and then to include the specific city where the job is located in the description section of your job post.
Am I allowed to post an advertisement for a focus group opportunity?

Yes, Take It In Trade™ members are allowed to post advertisements for focus group opportunities.  As a suggestion, when creating such a post, it is best to pick something under the "Jobs" category since focus group opportunities are most similar to jobs.

If the same focus group opportunity is offered to residents of multiple cities and/or states, it is most effective to include that information in the title and post separate ads in each location.  Remember, on Take It In Trade™ all posts are free, so if you have a job opportunity available in multiple locations its best to post multiple ads.
Am I allowed to post an advertisement for a job fair?

No, Take It In Trade™ does not allow its members to post advertisements for job fairs.  Because it is in the best interest of Take It In Trade™ members, postings for job fairs or anything similar will immediately be taken down. 

Am I allowed to include any links in my job post(s)?

Yes, feel free to include a link to the company/organizations home page, contact information page, or any other link that provides general information about the company or organization that has the job position available. You may also include a link to the page where a person would apply for the specific job position advertised in the post on Take It It Trade™.

The only thing we ask you not to do is include a link that leads to a listing of all the job positions available in the company or organization because this can be confusing.

Are there any special rules or guidelines for recruiters?

At Take It In Trade™ one of our top priorities is protecting our members.  Because we strive to keep Take It In Trade™ an honest, reliable and well functioning site, we have laid out a few guidelines that recruiters must follow when posting jobs on Take It In Trade™. 

  • You do not have to include any specific personal information in your posting(s); however, we do ask that you include something in each job post that allows people who view your post to know that you are a recruiter.  
  • Please do not post an ad in a job category unless there is an available job position in that specific category.  It is not enough that a specific company may have an opening for a job.
  • Please NO resume fishing or posting fake jobs.
  • Please NO illegal advertising strategies, such as bait and switch, misrepresentation, etc.
  • Finally, please do not use any other dishonest, unfair or misleading strategies.  We want to keep Take It In Trade™ a friendly and helpful website.
In addition, we ask that members report any post(s) that violates these guidelines by clicking on the "prohibited" link underneath the title of the ad/post.
