Frequently Asked Questions:
JOB SEEKERS
What is SportsHiring.com?
SportsHiring.com is the only all sports based website specifically geared towards matching individuals with a passion for a career in sports, with companies within the industry seeking qualified employees that is entirely free to use for both employers and employees.
How much does it cost to apply for a job or to register?
It is 100% free to register and in turn 100% free to apply for as many sports related positions as you would like. In order to apply, your only requirement is to complete a brief registration. You are then ready to go?
How I am protected so that my present employer is not aware of my search?
When you fill in your resume, you can check a box which will restrict your resume from the general database
Why are you different from the other large on-line job websites?
We are different in a couple of ways. Firstly, we are very targeted. Rather than offering jobs from any discipline, all of our positions are within the sports industry. Secondly, our staff are first and foremost in the sports business ourselves, unlike most other agencies/companies we live and breath in the sports industry rather than the employment industry. Thirdly, our cost to employers is generally much less than they would be paying on a large job website or in a national newspaper.
Why did you launch this website?
Because the sports industry has done a very poor job of having a consorted recruiting effort. There are great sports jobs available around the world and often those candidates most interested, would have no idea where to apply?
Why should I apply with you rather than going directly to the organization’s website?
As a prospective employee, you want to make the life of the company that is considering hiring you as simple as possible. As SportsHiring.com, our advanced software is built to streamline the process for the sports organization hiring. By applying directly to the club, you are going against the flow, and your application may very well be discarded pre-maturely.
If I apply for a job through SportsHiring.com, how will I know if I am a candidate?
This is left to the hiring organization. The sports company doing the hiring will choose how they follow up with you. Following your application, SportsHiring.com generally removes ourselves from the hiring process.
