9.ZealHire’s Liability.

The ZealHire Sites act as, among other things, venues for (i) Employers to post job opportunities and search for and evaluate Job Seekers and (ii) Job Seekers to post resumes and Profiles and search for and evaluate job opportunities. ZealHire does not screen or censor the listings, or Profiles offered. ZealHire is not involved in, and does not control, the actual transaction between Employers and Job Seekers. As a result, ZealHire is not responsible for User Content, the quality, safety or legality of the jobs or resumes posted, the truth or accuracy of the listings, the ability of employers to offer job opportunities to candidates or the ability of candidates to fill job openings and ZealHire makes no representations about any jobs, resumes or User Content on the ZealHire Sites. While ZealHire reserves the right in its sole discretion to remove User Content, Job Ads, resumes or other material from the ZealHire Sites from time to time, ZealHire does not assume any obligation to do so and to the extent permitted by law, disclaims any liability for failing to take any such action.

Note that there are risks, including but not limited to the risk of physical harm, of dealing with strangers, underage persons or people acting under false pretences. You assume all risks associated with dealing with other users with whom You come in contact through the ZealHire Sites. By its very nature other people’s information may be offensive, harmful, or inaccurate, and in some cases will be mislabeled or deceptively labeled. We expect that You will use caution and common sense when using the ZealHire Sites.

Because User authentication on the Internet is difficult, ZealHire cannot and does not confirm that each User is who they claim to be. Because we do not and cannot be involved in User-to-User dealings or control the behavior of participants on any ZealHire Site, in the event that You have a dispute with one or more Users, You release ZealHire (and our agents and employees) from claims, demands and damages (actual and consequential and direct and indirect) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, arising out of or in any way connected with such disputes to the fullest extent permitted by law.

No advice or information, whether oral or written, obtained by a User from ZealHire or through or from any ZealHire Site shall create any warranty not expressly stated herein.

If You are a California resident, You waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which says: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor.”

ZealHire encourages You to keep a back-up copy of any of Your User Content. To the extent permitted by law, in no event shall ZealHire be liable for the deletion, loss, or unauthorized modification of any User Content.

ZealHire does not provide or make any representation as to the quality or nature of any of the third-party products or services purchased through any ZealHire Site, or any other representation, warranty or guaranty.

Any controversy, claim or dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms, or the breach thereof, shall be settled by arbitration in New York City, New York before a single arbitrator of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). The arbitrator shall be selected by application of the rules of the AAA, or by mutual agreement of the parties, and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. No party to this agreement will challenge the jurisdiction or venue provisions as provided in this section.

Each party acknowledges that the arbitration process, and in particular, the Arbitrator’s award, is binding and conclusive upon all parties and not subject to appeal or review by any judicial or administrative process, (except as provided in N.Y. CPLR Article 75). Each party agrees that their submission to arbitration constitutes an irrevocable consent to having this action resolved entirely through arbitration except for motions to confirm (or vacate) the arbitrator’s award.

The Arbitrator shall hear and determine the controversy upon the evidence submitted and shall have the ultimate responsibility to determine the relevancy and admissibility of the evidence.

Resume Security

While fraud is prevalent online, it tends to be focused on companies that derive their business from online purchases. As ZealHire is primarily a free service, and the contact information found in a resume can just as easily be located elsewhere (e.g. telephone listings), you can be assured that posting your resume on ZealHire is a safe way to conduct a job search and manage your career. However, you do need to be mindful about the type of information you include on your resume. For example, the following personal information should never be included:

  • National Identification Number
  • Driver’s license number
  • Bank account information
  • Credit card information
  • Passwords
  • Date of birth

NOTE: You should also never share the personal information listed above with a prospective employer until you are confident that the employer and employment opportunity is legitimate.

Posting Your Resume
Do you want employers to find your resume on ZealHire? Are you currently employed and need to be more careful about who is able to see your posted resume? Not all job searches are alike, so ZealHire allows flexibility in how you post your resume. Your resume options are described below:

Public Resumes
Choosing the Visible to employers profile/resume option allows employers to find your resume during resume searches. Because employers may search for candidates before they post a job on ZealHire, choosing the public option will give you the widest possible access to job opportunities. Public resumes are viewable by employer customers — not other ZealHire candidate members.

Confidential Resumes
Prefer to keep your job search more private? Choosing the Hide name and contact information option saves your profile/resume as public, but hide your contact info, current company and references. Employers will be able to contact you via a confidential ZealHire email address. You can then view the job listing and decide whether to respond. Please note that if you apply online with your posted resume, the information you’ve marked as confidential will be included so the employer can contact you.

Important: If you choose to hide your contact information, current company and references, you must ALSO remove this information from your uploaded Word resume or Copy & Paste text resume.

Private Resumes
Choosing the Not visible to employers profile/resume option will prevent employers from accessing your resume on ZealHire during resume searches. However, you can still search for jobs and apply online using your private resume.

Important: With a resume not visible to employers, you may receive messages in your ZealHire account because your resume fits an employer’s search. Don’t worry; your resume is still private. Because ZealHire can see both your resume and the employer’s search, we can match resumes to searches without disclosing any information to the employer. If you reply to that message, the employer will receive your contact information and resume.
