Posting jobs with an undisclosed employer will require a Recruiter plan (from October 1, 2026)

Get on Board is changing who can publish jobs that don’t name the final employer. Starting October 1, 2026, if you post a job without identifying the company that will actually hire — for example, a recruiting agency or outsourcing firm posting on behalf of a client it doesn’t want to name — you’ll need a Recruiter plan or higher. This affects companies that recruit on behalf of others and any employer that wants to keep the hiring company undisclosed.

What’s changing

Today, every job on Get on Board must name the final hiring company, whether you post it directly or on behalf of a client.

From October 1, 2026:

• Recruiter plan or higher: you can publish jobs where the final employer stays undisclosed.
• Plans below Recruiter, or no active subscription: you must name the final employer to publish. Jobs that keep the final employer confidential won’t be accepted.

The Recruiter plan and every plan above it qualify. See what subscription plans include to compare tiers and choose the right one for you.

Why this change

Jobs that hide the final employer are harder for candidates to trust and evaluate. Reserving them for Recruiter plans and above keeps this option available to professional recruiters who use it responsibly, while keeping the public marketplace transparent for everyone else.

Identifying the final employer

If you recruit for other companies, the “I am recruiting on behalf of another company” option is where you name the client you’re hiring for. Naming the final employer is different from posting in confidential mode, which hides your ad from public listings but still shows your company name to the candidates you invite.

Talent-pool ads are still not allowed

A Recruiter plan does not let you post talent-pool ads. Generic listings whose real purpose is to collect candidate profiles for a database — rather than fill a specific, currently open role — remain prohibited on every plan, for direct employers, recruiters, and outsourcers alike. This is unchanged and part of our job moderation policy.

What to do before October 1, 2026

• If you post jobs for undisclosed clients and you’re on a lower plan or paying per post, review the subscription plans and move to Recruiter or higher before the date.
• If you’d rather keep your current plan, name the final employer on each job you publish.
• If you’re unsure whether your postings are affected, check when to mark “I am recruiting on behalf of another company”.
