Trust
How we check every job
What happens to every job, step by step
Found on the employer’s website
A job enters our queue from the company's own careers page or hiring system, or when an employer posts it to us directly. We never copy jobs from other job sites.
Checked by our software
It runs the eight checks listed below. Together they give a trust score and a result: verified, likely verified, unverified or suspicious. The evidence for each check is saved, so the decision can be reviewed later instead of taken on trust.
Approved by a person
This step is not optional. A checked job waits in a private review queue that the public site never reads. It becomes visible only when a member of our team approves it. That is what stops an unreviewed job reaching you by accident.
Salary written down honestly
On approval we record the salary in the currency AND the period that country uses: per month in the UAE, Singapore, Poland and the Philippines; per year in India, the US, the UK and the EU. Nothing is converted. An unpaid role is marked unpaid, which is different from a salary we were not told.
Removed from search when it expires
Every job has an expiry date. After that, it disappears from search, from the category and country pages and from Google Jobs, and applying is switched off. The job's own page stays up and is clearly marked expired, so an old link still explains what happened and points you to similar open jobs.
The eight checks
Each check is recorded for every job, along with the evidence, so a decision can be looked at again later.
The company is real
We match the employer to a real company with a live website before the job can name it. "Confidential client" jobs from a company we cannot identify are not published.
The job comes from the employer, not a copy
The job must come from somewhere the employer controls: their own careers page, or their hiring system, such as Greenhouse, Lever or Ashby. A job found only on another job site is a copy, and we do not publish copies.
The job still exists
We open the original web page and confirm the job is still there. Many jobs on other sites fail exactly here: they were real once, but they are gone.
The job is still open
A job can still be on a page but no longer accept applications. If the employer has marked it closed or filled, we reject it even though the page still loads.
The apply link works
We follow the apply link and confirm it opens a real application, not a dead page or a chain of redirects ending somewhere unrelated.
The apply link belongs to the employer
This is the check that catches fee scams. A job that looks like a real company but sends your application to an unrelated website is the classic fake job, and it fails here no matter how convincing the description is.
The hiring system is genuine
When the application is hosted on a hiring system, we confirm it is a real account on that system and not a page made to look like one.
It is not already on the site
If the same job reaches us twice from two sources, we keep one copy. Seeing one job four times is not more choice, it is a worse search.
What we do not promise
We can confirm that the company published the job, that it was open when we checked, and that the application goes to that company. We cannot promise that the team is good to work for, that the salary range is what they will offer you, or that they will reply. No job site can, and one that says otherwise is selling you something.
We also do not re-check a job every day. We check it when it is published and remove it from search when it expires, but a company can close a job quietly in between. If you find one, tell us and we will remove it.
How to spot a fake job anywhere
These are the checks we automate. They are worth doing yourself on any job site:
- They ask you for money. A registration fee, a training fee, a deposit, a “refundable” anything. No real employer charges you to be hired.
- The apply link is on the wrong website. Check where the form really lives. A big company whose application sits on an unrelated website is the clearest warning sign there is.
- A job offer with no interview. An offer arriving over chat, from a free email address, before anyone has spoken to you.
- Bank details before a contract. Payroll details come after a signed offer, from a company you have met.
Common questions
What does "verified" mean on Vettrion?
Does a person check every job, or is it automated?
What happens when a job closes?
Will Vettrion ever ask me to pay for a job?
Why do some jobs have no salary?
Found something wrong?
A job that has closed, misleads about pay, or asks you for a fee: tell us and we will remove it. A fake job costs you far more than it costs us to take down.
