Frequently asked questions
For job seekers
Does it cost anything?
No. Free forever for job seekers — no account, no fees.
Do I need a resume or an account?
No account, ever. Resume optional — name, phone, email, and town are enough. Most applications take about 60 seconds from a phone.
Are these jobs real?
Yes. Every posting is human-reviewed, every employer verified local, and every listing expires at 30 days. No ghost jobs.
Who sees my information?
Only the employer you apply to. We never sell your data or spam you — see our privacy policy.
When will I hear back?
Your application lands in the employer's inbox instantly; most respond within 48 hours. Watch your phone and email (and spam folder).
For employers
What does it cost?
A flat $50/month per job — unlimited applicants, no per-click fees, cancel anytime. Optional Boost (+$25/mo) pins your job to the top with social promotion. The first 25 founding Maine businesses post free for 90 days.
How is that different from Indeed?
Indeed's pay-per-click auction typically runs $300–$750/month per sponsored job, and you pay whether or not you hire. One flat month of 207Hire costs less than most employers spend on Indeed in a week.
How do I post?
Fill out the short form — or just email your old ad to hello@207hire.com and we'll post it for you. Jobs go live the same business day after review.
Where do applications go?
Straight to your email inbox, with the applicant's contact info and resume. You talk to candidates directly — we never sit in the middle.
What if I get no applicants?
No qualified applicants in your first 30 days → your next month is free.
Can I edit or take down my listing?
Anytime, free — email us or reply to any of our messages.
