This information will be published along with the Job Post or Resume profile.
Job Post: We allow employers to optionally provide preferred candidate requirements such as age, gender, religion, nationality, salary offering, and skills for the purpose of publishing job posts on our platform. This enables potential candidates to find and apply for jobs that match their qualifications and interests.
