Frequently asked questions


1. What are the hosting requirements for JobSite Professional?
The hosting requirements are PHP and MySQL. Additional it's good to have also GD (php library for working with images www.php.net/gd) because it's used to generate captcha images and prevent spamming (but GD isn't required, the usage of functionalities requiring GD can be turned off from the configuration file). Also a feature which can be turned on from the config file, is to use mod_rewrite to generate SEO friendly urls on the front site. Most of the Linux shared hosting packages support PHP, MySQL, GD and mod_rewrite (again GD and mod_rewrite aren't required) but please don't hesitate to contact us if you have additional questions related to hosting and the hosting requirements.

2. What is common between the NetArt Media Jobs Portal and JobSite Professional?
Until the Autumn of 2006 Jobs Portal was the only jobs board product developed by NetArt Media. Based on our experience we realized that offering just one product isn't very good solution because there are people who are just looking for simple job boards that they would like to plug in their existent website, other who prefer to start a new professional job website service etc. JobSite Professional is a solution for running professional websites and has all the functionalities of the old Jobs Portal.

3. I liked a template from these on the Templates page (or I already have a custom template), will you integrate it for me?
Since the template can be quite different, we won't be able to answer exactly your question without taking a look first at the template. You're more than welcome to contact us and we'll discuss this with you.

4. Will I get a discount if I buy more than one copy of JobSite Professional or another product of NetArt Media?
Yes, the discount could go up to 75%, please contact us for details.

5. Do you provide the php source codes?
Yes, we provide the php source codes (not encrypted).

6. Could you please recommend a hosting company and package for running a website powered by Jobs Portal?
We could recommend www.hostgator.com and especially their 5GB space shared Linux package. We aren't affiliated with this hosting company, just sharing the positive experience of our clients.

7. How the installation of the product on my server works, will you do it for me?
The product comes with a setup wizard which makes the installation really simple. Of course we could provide assistance if you experience a problem when running the setup.

8. On your demo site I've seen a "Powered by JobSiteProfessional" message, if I purchase JobSite Professional may I remove it from my site?
Yes, you may remove it. Of course if you keep a link back to us, this will be highly appreciated and in this case you could qualify for discounts up to 75% for our other products or additional services. Contact us for details.

9. I would like to translate the JobSite Professional in my language which I've seen you still don't have and then provide back the language file to you - will I qualify for a discount in such case?
Yes, for sure you will qualify for a discount. In general in order to translate JobSite Professional in another language, just one language file should be translated. Please contact us for details

10. Is it possible to translate Job Site Professional in another language?
Yes, it has a language file that you will need to translate in order to add a new language on your website. Please contact us if you are interested that we send you a copy of the current language file in order that you could take a look at it.

11. How the employers are charged?
In order to make easier for the employers to pay for the services on the website we have introduced credits payment system. The idea is simple - the employers should buy credits (using one of the available payment options, such as PayPal with IPN, 2checkout, cheques and bank transfer) and after that they use these credits to pay for the services for the website. The advantage of this system is that since there are services for which the employers are charged very little amounts (like for example to open a jobseeker resume using the Search in the database with resumes functionality), they don't have to be redirected to external websites and make payments for such little amounts. Currently the employers can be charged when they use any of the following services:
  • post job ads
  • make selected job ads featured (they appear on top of the search results and appear with yellow background)
  • upload job banners in different banner areas (the banner areas, their position, size of the banners and their price is set by the administrator) - the banners can be linked to the current job ads of the employer or an external link
  • browse the database with the jobseeker resumes (the administrator can set a price for this service, per one resume opening)

12. What options have the jobseekers to create online their resume?
The jobseekers can choose between an online resume creator (recommended) and rich text editor.
When using the resume creator the jobseeker will be asked to fill the information for his work history, education etc. in multiple fields. Even that it could take a bit more time to create the resume using this option, it's recommended because the employers have a better chance to find the resume - the different fields in the resume will be searchable.
When using the rich text editor, the jobseeker can write and format the text of his resume or directly paste it as rich text. The employers will be able to search by keyword in the text of the resume. Using this option is faster but it gives a worse chance that the resume will be found when the employers make searches.

13. What are the currently supported payment options, is it possible to add new ones?
Currently there are PayPal (with IPN), 2checkout, cheques and bank wire. If you are interested in another payment solution, please don't hesitate to contact us.

14. What front site content management functionalities are included?
The front site of JobSite Professional is empowered by WebSiteAdmin (general structure and content management system by NetArt Media) offering rich functionalities to manage the website structure (add/delete pages, replace their positions and many others) and content (WYSIWYG editor included).

15. Is it possible for jobseekers who aren't registered to apply for job offers
Yes, if this feature is turned on (from the config file by the administrator) the visitors of the website who don't have an account can apply for the jobs listed on the website. However being registered gives several advantages like possibility to create online a resume and others.

16. Can the jobseekers define email alerts and receive email notifications when a new job ad matching their search criteria is listed
Yes, the jobseeker can define multiple job alerts from his admin interface. The job alerts present a way for the jobseekers to define some custom rules for email notification when a new job ad meeting their search criteria is listed. For example if the jobseeker is looking for a job in New York containing the word "java" in the job description, he may define such email notification rule from his personal administration space. Every time when such job ad is listed on the website, the jobseeker will receive an email containing a direct link to the job ad on the job site.

17. Will the employer logo appear on the pages listing the job ads of this employer?
Yes, if the employer has uploaded a logo from the Profile page in his admin space, it will appear on the pages showing the employers job ads.

18. How the featured job ads work?
The employer can make at any time a job ad featured from his admin interface. The employer is charged the number of credits set by the administrator for the featured ads. The featured ads appear with yellow background and always on top of the search results. Additionally the administrator can choose to show the featured ads on all the pages of the front site (in a special block called "Featured Ads")

19. How the employers banners work? How the employer is charged for them?
The administrator can define multiple banner areas on the website (with different position, different size of the banners in it and different price in credits). The employers can upload banners (they pay for the banner depending on the select banner area) and specify an external link for the banner or the banner can lead to a page showing all the job ads of the employer.

20. I've seen that the currency on your demo is USD, will I be able to change it to another one on my website?
Yes, the currency used on the website is a setting in the config file and can be easily changed.
