What is the Job Search Engine? We source thousands of jobs from around the web using our job search engine. The links you see in our search results will redirect you to the webpage of the company advertising the job.

I don’t always get relevant jobs in the emails. Why is this? The emails that you receive are matched to the preferences that you have chosen when signing up for Second Post. If you feel you are not getting the right emails or jobs for the career you are interested in, visit My Second Post to check and update your preferences.
What can I do if I get too many/not enough emails? Firstly you should check the preferences you have selected by going to My Second Post. If you feel you are getting too many emails, you may need to narrow down the selections you have made. Check all the areas including location, industry sector and job roles. Alternatively, if you aren’t getting enough emails, you may need to widen your criteria.
What is the ‘no mystery jobs policy’? All the jobs that are advertised on Second Post are from named employers. This ensures that you will always know the company and position you are applying for. Many jobsites won't tell you the exact job title or who the employer is until they call for interview, making for a frustrating job hunt.
Who can I get in touch with if I have a further problem? You can email the Second Post team at info@secondpost.co.uk with any other queries or questions that you might have. Once we receive your email we will always try to respond within 24 hours. You can also email us with any comments or suggestions that you might like to make.
