Choose a job site with privacy and security that you can trust

Do you usually keep an eye on where your personal information ends up, ensuring it doesn’t fall into the wrong hands?

No matter how cautious you are, it’s difficult to fully protect your personal information from falling into the wrong hands. Recently, even large companies have faced data breaches, and in the worst-case scenario, your information can be used for criminal activities without your knowledge. That’s why picking a job site with strong security measures is crucial.

While some job sites ask for personal details like your name and date of birth during registration, Daijob.com only requires your email address to begin searching for jobs. Your name, date of birth, and other personal information remain private until you and the employer are mutually interested. Plus, if you’re worried about your current boss or colleagues finding out about your job search, Daijob.com offers a feature to keep your information hidden.

“I’m not sure about sharing too much personal info…
But without it, how can I move forward with my job search?”

Sound familiar?
No need to worry – you’re in good hands with Daijob!
Let’s explore the top-notch security features we offer to keep your information safe.

Kickstart your job search in no time—just sign up with your email address!

To register on Daijob.com, all you need is your email address, a password, and your general location—like “Northern USA.” You don’t need to provide detailed information, such as your exact address. This means you can access over 10,000 job listings with just your email, keeping your personal details secure.

Of course, with just this basic information, companies won’t know much about you. So you’ll still need to create a resume when applying. This makes Daijob.com an ideal platform for those who want to start their job search without sharing too much personal information right away.

There’s no need to provide your full address, including street details.

The basic fields required for a resume on Daijob.com include:

・Full Name
・Gender
・Date of Birth
・Nationality
・Visa Status
・Current Address
・Languages Spoken
・Desired Job Type
・Work Experience (Yes/No)

One aspect that might raise concern is the “current address.” In recent times, there have been cases where others misuse people’s addresses for wrong purposes. However, on Daijob.com, you only need to provide the city or town, not specific details like street numbers. This ensures your safety, as it prevents third parties from sending documents or unexpectedly visiting you.

◯ Correct input example: Shinjuku, Tokyo, Nishishinjuku
✕ Unnecessary details: Shinjuku, Tokyo, Nishishinjuku 7-chome 5-25 Prime Square 2F

※Be careful not to accidentally enter your full address.

As for work experience, it is a free-text section. While it’s important to showcase your strengths, providing too many details could lead to you being identified. You can modify company names, for example, by using “Major system development company.” If you prefer to include the actual company names for better visibility, feel free to do so, but keep in mind the potential risks.

Your personal information stays private until the selection process begins.

Your information is only shared when you actively apply for a job or respond with “Interested” to a scout email from a company. If you prefer not to engage, you can choose “Not Interested,” or if you wish to continue communicating without revealing your personal information, you can select “On Hold.”

The “Block feature” lets you search for jobs without your current workplace finding out.

One of Daijob.com’s unique features is the “Block Function.”

There are many reasons people consider changing jobs, and for some, it might stem from issues with their current workplace. Even if you’re not facing any problems, you might not want your employer to find out that you’re exploring new career options.

In such situations, it can be awkward if a recruiter or someone from your current company discovers your resume on a job site.

That’s where the “Block Function” comes in handy.

By adding companies you don’t want to be seen by to your block list, you can ensure they won’t be able to view your profile on Daijob.com. However, since many companies are constantly registering, it’s a good idea to review your block list regularly to maintain a secure and discreet job search environment.
