Candidate Matches & Premium Talent Search Terms

1. These Candidate Matches Terms and Conditions (CM Terms) apply to our complimentary Candidate Matches service.

2. The complimentary Candidate Matches service allows you to proactively identify and connect with potential candidates for your advertised roles. For each Qualifying Job Advertisement you post on the SEEK, JobStreet by SEEK (excluding JobStreet Express) 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 Qualifying 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; and

b. issue complimentary Candidate Invitations that you can use to connect with the Recommended 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);

b. Premium Talent Search: our premium, paid version of candidate search tools with increased functionality (see Part C below).

4. If you have access to Basic Talent Search:

a. you will also have access to the complimentary Candidate Matches service and these CM Terms apply to you in addition to the Basic Talent Search Terms and Conditions (see Part B below); and

b. you are entitled to use both the Candidate Matches service described in these CM Terms and the Basic Talent Search service.

5. If you have access to Premium Talent Search:

a. you will have access to the complimentary Candidate Matches service and these CM Terms apply to you in addition to the separate Premium Talent Search Terms and Conditions (see Part C below);

b. you are entitled to use both the Candidate Matches service described in these CM Terms and the Premium Talent Search service; and

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 contracting parties and governing law) also apply to these CM Terms

a. Candidate Invitations means the number of candidate invitations allocated to you based on the Qualifying Job Advertisement that you have purchased which can be used to access the Connection Methods available within the complimentary Candidate Matches service.

h. 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.

If you are posting job advertisements through a recruitment software provider, you will not be able to use this service through your Applicant Tracking System. We will issue you with Candidate Invitations for each Qualifying Job Advertisement you post on our websites and apps. 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 the balance of your remaining Candidate Invitations via your SEEK employer account.

10. Subject to the Daily Limits, you may use the Candidate Invitations issued under these CM Terms to access the Connection Methods in relation to the Recommended Candidates for the related Qualifying Job Advertisement.

11. The Candidate Invitations issued under these CM Terms:

a. can only be used in relation to the Recommended Candidates for the Qualifying Job Advertisement for which the Candidate Invitations were granted;
