FAQs
Q. Is there any fee for registering?
A. No, registration is free of charge. There is, however, a fee
associated with posting jobs and searching resumes.
All postings stay live for 30 days from date of submission. Prices vary from $175
per single posting down to $30 per posting (if you opt to go with a job package).
All packages are valid for 1 year from date of purchase.
Once you have completed registration you can create and save postings and when you
purchase packages of five or more, you can search the resume database.
You can also use your MyBAJobs page to keep track of jobs you have posted and
review the applications for your position.
Q. Can you I search resumes without posting a position?
A. No, we do not currently offer resume database search as a
separate package. You will have to buy, at least, a five job package to search resumes.
Q. I have entered my position and clicked preview, but nothing
happens?
A. It is likely that you missed one of the required fields at
the top of the Create a Posting page. Scroll up and make sure you have selected
a value for each of the required fields.
Q. Cutting and Pasting from MS Word (for Internet Explorer 6.0
and later)
A. To paste formatted text from Microsoft Word, use the "Paste
from Word"
button on the editor toolbar. Microsoft Word sometimes inserts unwanted
formatting codes that will appear in your document. These codes often look like
this:
<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns =
"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
If this happens, two buttons can help: the "Clean Word Formatting" button
removes many of Microsoft Word's formatting problems, and the "Erase
Formatting" button removes all formatting, giving you a clean slate to
re-format your document.
To use "Clean Word Formatting", just click the button at any time. To use "Erase
Formatting", first select the text whose formatting you want to erase, and then
click the button.
Q. How do you make an inactive posting active?
A. Postings are generally inactive for one of four reasons
-
It has not been activated yet. There is often a slight delay between submitting a
posting and it going live. We use this time to review the content of the
posting and ensure that it is appropriate and effective.
-
You have asked us to review the posting. This process can sometimes take several
hours as we review and revise the posting to make the most engaging, effective
advertisement possible for your company.
-
You set it as inactive, either on purpose or inadvertently.
To make it active, log into the site and click on Posting Management from the navigation
bar under the BAJobs logo. Under the Inactive listings section, click on activate link.
-
It has expired. If it has expired, you can make it active again by
modifying/updating it. This will reset the expiration date for another 30 days.
Q. How do I update my posting?
A. To update your posting simply log in to your BAJobs account
and click Posting Management on the navigation bar at the top of the page.
On the Posting Management page, find the posting you would like to modify and
click the title to edit the posting. You can update your Posting Details (such

At any time, you can preview your changes by clicking the Preview Posting button
at the bottom of the page. Once you are happy with your changes, click Save

Q. How long is my posting active?

on the site. You can renew the posting according to the appropriate rates as a
one-time posting or as part of your package.

applicants, how do I respond?
