Post your first job free, then pay per post

ANOQR Jobs does not sell a subscription. Your first posting is free out of the same allowance that covers marketplace ads, and every posting after that costs one ad credit. That is the whole pricing model.

Most job boards ask a small employer to commit to a subscription before they know whether the board reaches the people they need. ANOQR Jobs does not have one.

Your first job posting is free, drawn from the same free allowance that covers marketplace listings. Every posting after that costs one ad credit. There is no monthly fee and nothing recurring.

What that means in practice

The credits are the same credits. A shop that bought a pack to list stock in the marketplace can spend one of those credits on a job post, and an employer who buys a pack to hire can spend a leftover credit listing a used desk. One pool, any category.

The ad packages page carries the current prices; the employer page on jobs.anoqr.com reads the same figures live, so what you see when posting is what applies.

Write a posting people can actually apply to

Job posts fail on the same three things, and all three are avoidable in five minutes.

State the location precisely. The office, not the head office. This is the single most common cause of wasted applications on both sides — candidates apply, discover the commute at the interview stage, and withdraw.

State a salary range. A posting without one gets fewer and worse-matched applications, because candidates who know their number will not spend an evening on an application that might be far below it. A range is enough; it does not have to be exact.

Name three specific requirements, not fifteen. A list of fifteen "essential" skills reads as a wish list and deters the qualified candidates who have twelve of them. Three real ones produce applications you can actually sort.

The rest of the posting

  • A real job title. "Accounts Executive" finds people; "Rockstar Numbers Ninja" does not appear in anyone's search.
  • Five or six lines on what the person will actually do day to day. Not a mission statement.
  • Whether it is full-time, part-time or shift work, and the hours.
  • Your company name. Anonymous postings get materially fewer applications, because candidates cannot check who they would be working for.

Reply, even to the no

Applicants who hear nothing tell people. On a local board where you will hire again next year, a two-line rejection is not courtesy overhead — it is the cheapest reputation work available to a small employer.

Sizing it

If you hire once or twice a year, post as you go: the first is free and the next costs one credit. If you hire continuously — a shop chain, an agency, seasonal intake — buy a pack, and note that credits are valid for 180 days, so size the pack against the roles you will genuinely post inside six months.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to post a job on ANOQR?
The first posting is free, from the same allowance that covers marketplace ads. Every posting after that costs one ad credit. There is no subscription.
Do I need a separate employer plan?
No. Job posts draw on the same ad credits as marketplace listings, so one pool covers both.
Should I state a salary in the posting?
Yes, at least a range. Postings without one attract fewer and less well-matched applications, because candidates will not invest time in a role that may be far below their expectation.
How many requirements should a posting list?
About three real ones. A list of fifteen "essential" skills deters qualified applicants who meet twelve of them and produces a weaker shortlist.
Do ad credits used for job posts expire?
Yes, 180 days from purchase, the same as any ad credit. Size a pack against the roles you will genuinely post within six months.

Finding a job near you on ANOQR Jobs

Most job searches fail on method rather than on qualifications — too broad, too generic, and abandoned in week two. Here is how to run one properly on ANOQR Jobs, where the board is built around where you actually are.

A free CV that machines can actually read

A large share of applications are filtered by software before any person reads them, and the usual culprit is not the content — it is a two-column layout with the name in a text box. Here is how to build a CV that survives that, free.
