Job seekers

Is it free to use Job Adverts Uganda?

Yes. There is no charge to browse vacancies, register as a job seeker, or apply for a job – and there never will be.

Will I ever have to pay to apply or to get an interview?

No. If anyone asks you to pay a fee to apply, sit an interview, or receive an offer for a job you found here, that is not us and it is not legitimate. Please report it.

How can I spot a fake job advert?

Be careful if an advert or recruiter asks you for money (for “processing”, training, medicals or uniforms), gives no clear employer name or address, only lets you apply through a personal phone number or WhatsApp chat, promises a very high salary for little experience, or pressures you to decide immediately. Genuine employers do not charge you to be hired. If you’re unsure, check the employer’s official website or ask us.

How do I report a suspicious or fake advert?

Email us at [email protected] with the job title and employer name, and we’ll look into it straight away. You can also reach us through our Contact page.

Where do the jobs on this site come from?

Most adverts are found and posted by us – from company websites, notice boards and public listings – and rewritten in our own words, keeping the job title, employer, deadline and how to apply accurate. Employers can also submit vacancies directly. Every advert is checked before it goes live.

Is every job on the site still open?

We work to keep listings current, but we can’t guarantee a vacancy is still open. Always check the application deadline in the advert before you apply.

Do you decide who gets hired?

No. Applications go to the employer, who makes all hiring decisions. We are not part of any interview, offer or employment relationship that results from an application.

How do I hear about new jobs quickly?

Follow our WhatsApp channel to get new vacancies as they’re posted, or check the jobs list regularly.

What happens to my CV and personal details?

When you apply for a job, the details and documents you submit are shared with the employer for that vacancy. You can ask us what information we hold, correct it, or have your account and data deleted at any time. See our Privacy Policy for details.

Employers

How do I post a vacancy?

Register as an employer and submit your vacancy through Post a Job. Please use the form rather than emailing us – it gets your advert reviewed and published faster.

How long before my advert goes live?

Every employer-submitted advert is reviewed by a person before it’s published, so it won’t appear instantly. If you’re waiting on an advert, get in touch and we’ll check its status.

How do I manage my job listings?

Once logged in, use your jobs dashboard to see and manage the vacancies you’ve submitted.

Can you edit or remove my advert?

Yes. We may edit, decline or remove any advert at our discretion, including after it has been published if we later have reason to doubt it.

What am I responsible for as an employer?

You’re responsible for making sure your vacancies are genuine, current and lawful, and for how you handle applications and personal data you receive. Charging job seekers any fee is not allowed. See our Terms.
