Why Is My Account Under Review?

OnlineJobs may occasionally place employer accounts under manual review to help maintain platform safety, trust, and hiring quality.

Manual reviews are a normal part of our moderation and fraud prevention systems.

They do not always mean that your account violated platform rules.


Why Manual Reviews Happen

Accounts may enter manual review for reasons such as:

  • New account verification

  • Unusual account activity

  • Job moderation checks

  • Billing or payment verification

  • Security or fraud prevention checks

  • Repeated edits or posting activity

  • Reports submitted by users

  • Automated moderation system flags

Both free and premium employer accounts may be reviewed when necessary.


What Happens During Review?

During a manual review, OnlineJobs moderators may:

  • Review your job postings

  • Verify account information

  • Check platform policy compliance

  • Review hiring activity

  • Analyze security or fraud-related signals

Some features or listings may temporarily remain limited while the review is ongoing.


Can I Still Use My Account?

This depends on the type of review.

During manual review:

  • Some employers may keep partial access

  • Certain jobs may remain hidden temporarily

  • Some actions may be restricted until review is completed

Restrictions vary depending on the reason for the review.


Typical Review Time

Most manual reviews are completed:

  • Within a few hours

  • Sometimes within several days depending on complexity and moderation workload

Reviews involving security, billing, or fraud prevention may take longer.


What Happens After Review?

After the review is completed:

  • Your account may return to normal automatically

  • Jobs may become visible again

  • Additional information may be requested

  • Moderation actions may be applied if necessary

You may also receive notifications regarding the review outcome.


Why Free Accounts May Experience More Reviews

Free employer accounts may undergo more frequent manual moderation because:

  • Free listings are reviewed in a separate moderation queue

  • All edits trigger moderation review

  • Additional fraud prevention checks may apply

Premium accounts may sometimes receive faster automated approvals depending on internal moderation systems.


Troubleshooting

Did I do something wrong?

Not necessarily.

Manual reviews are often preventive and may happen automatically as part of platform safety and moderation systems.

Why is my job hidden during review?

Jobs may temporarily become hidden while moderation checks are being completed.

This helps maintain listing quality and candidate trust.

Can I speed up the review?

Submitting complete, professional, and accurate information helps reduce moderation delays.

Repeated spam messages to support usually do not speed up review times.


Pro Tip

Employers with complete company profiles, transparent job listings, and consistent platform compliance generally experience smoother moderation and fewer manual review interruptions on OnlineJobs.
