For each Job Advertisement you post on the SEEK, JobStreet by SEEK and JobsDB by SEEK employment websites and apps (collectively, our websites and apps), we will:
a. recommend up to 100 candidates from our database for your role (Recommended Candidates). Depending on the combinations of your Job Advertisement, for example, role title and/or location, the number of Recommended Candidates may be less than 100 candidates. To increase the number of Recommended Candidates for that role, you should broaden the role title and/or location;
b. if your Qualifying Job Advertisement type includes the Likely Interested feature, identify up to 200 additional Likely Interested candidates from our database for your role and add them to your Candidate Matches list on or around day 7, as further described in clauses 18 to 22; and
c. if your Job Advertisement is a Qualifying Job Advertisement, issue complimentary Candidate Invitations that you can use to connect with your Recommended Candidates (including any Likely Interested candidates) through the Connection Methods.
3. We also offer other candidate search services:
a. Basic Talent Search: a service that provides verified hirers with monthly connections to search and connect with candidates (see Part B below);

c. you will not have access to the Basic Talent Search service while you have access to Premium Talent Search under a Commercial Agreement.
6. These CM Terms will bind both the relevant individual and any business or organisation they represent (or claim to represent) and references to "you" and "your" (and related terms) should be read accordingly.
7. These CM Terms are incorporated into the Advertising Terms of Use, which also apply to you. This means that relevant provisions in the Advertising Terms of Use (such as those relating to the availability of and interruption to our products and services, contracting parties and governing law) also apply to these CM Terms.

i. Send Job is a Connection Method that allows you to invite a candidate to apply for a particular Job Advertisement by electronically sending that Job Advertisement to that candidate.
j. Send Message is a Connection Method which allows you to send an electronic message to a candidate. You do not need to purchase a full Candidate Profile to send a Send Message.
k. Likely Interested means candidates identified from our database whose Candidate Profiles, activities and interactions on our websites and apps indicate a potential interest in your role, who are added to your Candidate Matches list in accordance with clauses 18 to 22.
9. You can only access Candidate Matches directly through our websites and apps by logging in to your SEEK employer account. You cannot access Candidate Matches through a recruitment software provider or applicant tracking system that you may use to post job advertisements. Candidate Invitations are issued for each Qualifying Job Advertisement you post. The number of Candidate Invitations you receive depends on the type of Qualifying Job Advertisement you have purchased as detailed during your purchase process. You can check your Candidate Invitation balance via your SEEK employer account.
10. If you have posted a Qualifying Job Advertisement, subject to the Daily Limits, you may use your Candidate Invitations to access the Connection Methods for the Recommended Candidates (including any Likely Interested candidates) for that Qualifying Job Advertisement.
11. If you have posted a Job Advertisement that is not a Qualifying Job Advertisement, no Candidate Invitations will be issued to you. You will still have access to your Candidate Matches list of Recommended Candidates. If you wish to connect with those Recommended Candidates, you may do so using:
a. your Basic TS Connections, if you have access to Basic Talent Search, to access the Connection Methods, subject to the Daily Limits and in accordance with the Basic Talent Search Terms and Conditions (Part B); or
b. your Talent Search Credits, if you have access to Premium Talent Search, to access the Connection Methods and Access Profile, subject to the Daily Limits and in accordance with the Premium Talent Search Terms and Conditions (Part C).

c. expire when your Qualifying Job Advertisement expires or is otherwise removed from our websites and apps;
d. where your Qualifying Job Advertisement is Refreshed or Extended (terms as defined in the Advertising Terms of Use):
i) new allocation of Candidate Invitations will be issued for the Refreshed or Extended Qualifying Job Advertisement from the date of Refresh or Extension; and
ii) any unused Candidate Invitations from the period prior to the Refresh or Extension will expire and will not be carried forward, converted or refunded; and
e. where your Job Advertisement is upgraded to a Qualifying Job Advertisement type (subject to eligibility requirements for an upgrade):
i) a new allocation of Candidate Invitations will be issued from the date of upgrade; and
ii) if applicable, any Candidate Invitations you held prior to the upgrade will expire and will not be carried forward, converted or refunded.

15. Candidates decide how much of their Candidate Profile is visible through Candidate Matches, if any (please refer to the "Visibility Settings" section of our Privacy Policy). You understand and acknowledge that a candidate's visibility settings may impact what Connection Methods are available to you.
16. When you connect with a candidate using any of the Connection Methods, you acknowledge that the candidate will receive a notification from us of such interaction. Please be aware that in all such cases, your organisation's identity and the name associated with your employer account will be revealed to the candidate, even if you are using the "Private Advertiser" function on your Job Advertisement.
17. The following daily limits (Daily Limits) apply to the use of Connection Methods (and, for Premium Talent Search hirers, Access Profile) across Candidate Matches, Basic Talent Search, and Premium Talent Search:
Connection Method | Per user per day | Per employer per day | Applicable to |
|---|---|---|---|
Send Message | 100 | 300 | All hirers |
Send Job | 200 | 2,000 | All hirers |
Access Profile | 100 | 1,200 | Premium Talent Search hirers only |
18. If your Qualifying Job Advertisement type includes the Likely Interested feature (as detailed during your purchase process), we will identify up to 200 Likely Interested candidates from our database and add them to your Candidate Matches list:
a. on or around day 7 after your Qualifying Job Advertisement is first posted; or
b. on or around day 7 after the date your Job Advertisement is upgraded to a Qualifying Job Advertisement type.
For the avoidance of doubt, if your Qualifying Job Advertisement is subsequently Refreshed or Extended, the Likely Interested candidates already added to your Candidate Matches list will not be updated or replaced and no new Likely Interested candidates will be added as a result of the Refresh or Extension.
19. The following applies to the Likely Interested feature:
a. Likely Interested candidates are identified once only, being on or around day 7 after posting or upgrade. No further Likely Interested candidates will be added to your Candidate Matches list after that date.
b. The number of Likely Interested candidates added to your Candidate Matches list may be less than 200 or may be zero, depending on the combinations of your Qualifying Job Advertisement (for example, role title and/or location) and the availability of candidates whose behaviour indicates a predicted interest in your role.
c. If no Likely Interested candidates are identified for your role, no additional candidates will be added to your Candidate Matches list and no notification will be sent to you.
d. Likely Interested candidates are added to your existing Candidate Matches list and identified by a "Likely Interested" tag.
e. If a candidate appears in both your initial Recommended Candidates list and the Likely Interested pool, that candidate will appear only once in your Candidate Matches list and will be treated as a Likely Interested candidate with a "Likely Interested" tag.
f. The combined list of Recommended Candidates and Likely Interested candidates is static other than the update on or around day 7 following initial posting or upgrade. The list will not be refreshed or updated if your Qualifying Job Advertisement is subsequently Refreshed or Extended. The list will be removed when your Qualifying Job Advertisement expires or is otherwise removed from our websites and apps.
20. Where Likely Interested candidates are identified for your role, we will send you an email notification on or around the seventh calendar day after your Qualifying Job Advertisement is first posted or, where applicable, after the date your Job Advertisement is upgraded to a Qualifying Job Advertisement type, informing you of the Likely Interested candidates. If the seventh calendar day falls on a Saturday or Sunday, the notification will be sent on the following business day. By posting a Qualifying Job Advertisement (or upgrading your job advertisement to a Qualifying Job Advertisement type) that includes the Likely Interested feature, you agree to receive this notification from us.
21. You may connect with Likely Interested candidates using the Connection Methods in the same way as Recommended Candidates, using your Candidate Invitations (or, where your Candidate Invitations are exhausted, your Basic TS Connections or Talent Search Credits as applicable under clause 14). Premium Talent Search hirers may also use Access Profile for Likely Interested candidates via Talent Search Credits. No additional Candidate Invitations are issued for Likely Interested candidates. Your existing pool of Candidate Invitations applies to your entire Candidate Matches list, including any Likely Interested candidates.
22. Candidates whose profile visibility settings make them inaccessible through Candidate Matches are excluded from the Candidate Matches list (including from Likely Interested candidates). Candidates who have chosen to hide your Qualifying Job Advertisement will also be excluded from the Likely Interested candidates pool. Such candidates may still appear as Recommended Candidates in your initial Candidate Matches list.
23. You agree to use the Candidate Matches service and the information you obtain through the service:
a. only for the purpose of a genuine hiring process for the specific role advertised in the related Job Advertisement; and
b. in strict compliance with our Advertising Terms of Use, which includes complying with all Applicable Laws, including but not limited to, applicable Privacy Laws and anti-spam laws (capitalised terms as defined in the Advertising Terms of Use).
24. You must not use Candidate Matches (including the Connection Methods) or the Likely Interested feature, or any candidate information obtained through Candidate Matches, regardless of whether you have posted a Qualifying Job Advertisement or another Job Advertisement, for:
a. soliciting business or promoting your products or services for any purpose that is unrelated to a genuine hiring process;
b. general marketing or sales outreach;
c. scraping, harvesting, bulk-downloading or systematically copying Candidate Profiles or personal information from our websites and apps;
d. exporting candidate data or Candidate Profiles outside our websites and apps into other databases, systems or tools; or
e. contacting the same candidate across multiple hirer accounts to circumvent the Daily Limits or any other restriction under these CM Terms.
25. If we detect activity in breach of clauses 23 or 24, we reserve the right to immediately:
a. remove any of your live job advertisements you may have placed on our websites and apps; and
b. cancel any Candidate Invitations allocated to you.
26. We may make changes to, or cease to offer, the complimentary Candidate Matches service or the Likely Interested feature under these CM Terms (including features or functionality). We will publish notice of such actions on our website. For the avoidance of doubt, the variation of terms provisions in the Advertising Terms of Use do not apply to these CM Terms.
