For employer members, EmploymentCrossing currently provides employer members several monthly plans that allow the employer to post jobs and access resumes of job seeking members of EmploymentCrossing.
While EmploymentCrossing makes every effort to only list jobs which employers may want those in the industry-specific community to know about, we are not responsible for the accuracy of our jobs and/or the contact information for those jobs and any consequences to our users that may follow from them applying to given jobs listed on the EmploymentCrossing website. The inclusion of links on this site does not constitute an endorsement of the employer or a guarantee that a job even exists with a given employer. EmploymentCrossing assumes no liability whatsoever for the quality or legality of the jobs posted on its site or whether or not employers are actually able to hire a candidate in response to a given job listing. Furthermore, EmploymentCrossing does not censor any position offered, including but not limited to the identity of the employer.
EmploymentCrossing assumes no liability for the quality, legality, or accuracy of resumes, cover letters, supporting materials or its assistance in transmitting any of this information to an employer member.

UNTIL YOU TERMINATE YOUR MEMBERSHIP, YOU AUTHORIZE OUR BILLING COMPANY (VERISIGN) TO CHARGE YOUR CREDIT CARD (OR OTHER APPROVED FACILITY OR MECHANISM) FOR THE ONGOING SUBSCRIPTION FEE.
WHEN YOU SIGN UP FOR EMPLOYMENTCROSSING WITH A PROMOTION CODE THAT OFFERS FREE ACCESS FOR A SPECIFIED PERIOD, YOUR CREDIT CARD WILL NOT BE CHARGED FOR THE SPECIFIED PERIOD, ALLOWING YOU FREE AND UNLIMITED ACCESS DURING THAT PERIOD. IF THE PROMOTION REQUIRES YOU TO SUBMIT PAYMENT INFORMATION, YOUR CREDIT CARD WILL BE CHARGED ON THE DAY IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING THE END OF THE SPECIFIED PERIOD, UNLESS YOU CALL US DURING THE PROMOTION PERIOD TO CANCEL AS DESCRIBED IN THIS PARAGRAPH, AND YOU WILL CONTINUE TO BE BILLED THEREAFTER IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF YOUR SUBSCRIPTION. FOR EXAMPLE, IF YOU SIGN UP WITH THE 14-DAY FREE TRIAL OFFER, YOU WILL BE BILLED THE PERIODIC FEE ON THE 15TH DAY, AND WILL CONTINUE TO BE BILLED THE PERIODIC FEE EACH BILLING PERIOD THEREAFTER. ANY FREE TRIAL OFFER ASSOCIATED WITH EMPLOYMENTCROSSING ENTITLES NEW SUBSCRIBERS TO A ONE-TIME FREE TRIAL USAGE OF THE SERVICE. BY SIGNING UP FOR EMPLOYMENTCROSSING WITH A PROMOTION CODE OFFERING FREE ACCESS FOR A SPECIFIED PERIOD AND SUBMITTING PAYMENT INFORMATION, YOU SPECIFICALLY AUTHORIZE US TO CHARGE YOUR CREDIT CARD FOR THE PERIODIC FEES UNDER WHICH YOU HAVE SIGNED UP, BEGINNING IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE END OF THE SPECIFIED PROMOTION PERIOD.
