User Agreements
- Introduction.
The following three User Agreements are very similar because they are based on the same
original document. However, there are minor differences between each one pertaining
to the unique nature of each of the three types of users who will be accessing the
JobSeeker Database.

- APA Members.
USER AGREEMENT AND DISCLAIMER
The JobSeeker Database is designed to be a self-serve system where
users can create and edit their own records, and where potential employers
can enter their own criteria and generate their own reports. The Help
Desk at the National Office (302-831-1181) is available to assist
with technical problems but not to assist with data entry or generating
reports.
Use of the JobSeeker Database is a benefit of APA membership. APA
members can create and edit their own profiles but they may not search
the database.
The APA JobSeeker Database is not intended to replace or subvert any
part of the traditional hiring process. Use of this service to search
for potential job candidates requires confirmation that all applicable
state and federal employment regulations are being followed.
The APA JobSeeker Database is designed to give individuals who are
on the job market an additional method of promoting themselves to
potential employers. It is also designed to give potential employers
a means of identifying individuals who may be particularly well-suited
for a position, and thereby allow them to inform those individuals
about their opening and to invite them to apply if interested. It
is not meant to replace the traditional avenues of posting or responding
to job listings, but rather to enhance the traditional process.
This service is intended to be inclusive of all populations and individuals
in the philosophical community. The purpose of the JobSeeker Database
is most certainly not to give any individual or group of individuals
an unfair advantage over anyone else in the job market.
Use of this service is completely voluntary. All information is kept
confidential and is searchable only by departments or companies that
have placed an ad in JFP. Please note that none of the information
fields in the profile are required.
The American Philosophical Association assumes no responsibility for
the veracity of the information stored by users in this database.
Requests for enhancements, bug reports, and any other technical questions
or problems should be directed to the Information Resources Coordinator
at the National Office.
