Packages and My Stats

Some sites charge job seekers, or limit what they can do, through packages. A package sets how many resumes and cover letters you may have, how many jobs you may apply for, and whether you may search for jobs, save searches, set job alerts, and promote resumes as gold or featured. Each package lasts a number of days.

On many sites packages aren’t needed at all. My Stats then says Package Not Required, and you can use everything without one.

The packages

Section titled “The packages”

Click Packages in the Job Seeker Control Panel. Each package shows its title, its price (or Free) and what it allows:

Line Meaning
Resume Allowed How many resumes you may create.
Job Search Whether you may use the job search (a tick).
Cover Letters Allowed How many cover letters you may write.
Save Job Search Whether you may save searches (a tick).
Featured Resumes / Gold Resumes How many resumes you may promote, and for how many days each promotion lasts.
Apply for jobs How many jobs you may apply for.
Expire In Days How long the package lasts after you get it.

Unlimited means there is no limit. Details View opens the package’s full description.

The Packages page with the Free Package: Resume Allowed 1, Job Search ticked, Cover Letters Allowed 3, Save Job Search ticked, Featured Resumes 1 (30 Days), Gold Resumes 1 (30 Days), Apply for jobs Unlimited, the Buy Now and Details View buttons and Expire In Days 365.
