1. Agreeing to these Terms
These Terms & Conditions (the “Terms”) set the rules for your use of surveyorhires.com (“SurveyorHires,” “we,” “us”).
When you browse the board, search surveying jobs or pay for a listing, you enter into a binding agreement to these Terms.
Anyone who does not accept them should stop using SurveyorHires.
You must be at least 18 to pay for a listing or to apply for a surveying job through SurveyorHires.
2. The scope of SurveyorHires for employers and job seekers
SurveyorHires lists land surveying openings, among them licensed surveyors, surveyors in training, party chiefs, instrument operators, rod persons, survey technicians, CAD drafters, drone, LiDAR and GIS staff, and survey project managers. SurveyorHires is not a survey firm, engineering company, licensing board, exam provider or professional society; it performs no surveys, issues no licenses, certifies or rates no one, and offers no professional, licensing, employment or legal advice to employers, job seekers or anyone else.
All we do is publish surveying job listings and related career material.
Anyone hired from a listing works for the employer, not for SurveyorHires; we are not a recruiter, staffing company or placement agency, and we play no part in the working relationship between an employer and the person it hires.
We do not vet, interview, check references for or vouch for any employer or applicant, and we do not promise that a post will produce a hire or that an application will produce an offer.
3. How listings get onto SurveyorHires
A listing appears on SurveyorHires in one of two ways: an employer pays for and submits it, or we collect it from a public careers page that the employer runs.
In both cases the employer, not SurveyorHires, answers for the accuracy of the duties, pay, license or experience requirements and all other details.
A survey firm, contractor or agency may change or close a collected opening on its own site before our copy is updated.
When you press Apply, you leave SurveyorHires for an application page operated by the employer, and that employer's own terms and privacy policy apply from then on.
4. Paying for a listing
- A paid listing costs a single charge at the rate shown on our pricing page and never renews unless you choose to purchase again.
- The Growth and Brand slot plans are the sole recurring charges. Each one is set up with you in person, charged monthly, and you may cancel it whenever you wish.
- Stripe handles every card payment made to SurveyorHires, so your full card number never passes through or rests on our servers.
- A post goes live when checkout finishes, remains up for 30 days, and then comes down on its own.
- Requests for refunds are handled under our Refund Policy.
- By posting, you state that the surveying job is real and currently open, that the post is accurate and legal, and that it follows all employment laws that apply, including anti-discrimination law and any state or local pay transparency rule covering the job.
- We can refuse, change or remove a post when we have good reason to think it is a scam, misleading, unlawfully discriminatory, illegal, filed under the wrong role, or in some other way against these Terms. Posts removed for breaking these Terms do not qualify for a refund.
5. Rules for using the surveying job board
Employers, job seekers and other visitors to SurveyorHires agree that they will not:
- post anything false, deceptive or fraudulent, or use a post to advertise anything but a genuine surveying job;
- scrape, copy or mass-download listings or other material from the site for republication without our prior written consent;
- disrupt SurveyorHires, probe or enter systems or data you have no right to use, or try to get a listing published without payment;
- use SurveyorHires to send spam or advertising nobody asked for;
- pose as someone else, claim to speak for a firm, contractor or agency you do not represent, or misrepresent how you are connected to an employer.
6. Career guides and pay pages are for general information
The career guides, pay pages and licensing pages on SurveyorHires offer general background on working in land surveying and related mapping fields.
They are not legal, tax, licensing, employment or other professional advice, and they may not yet reflect recent changes to state licensing rules, exam requirements, survey standards or continuing education rules.
Pay figures are estimates drawn from the cited sources and do not tell you what a given employer will pay.
Before relying on anything about a surveying license, exam or credential, check it with the state board or body that issues it.
7. Ownership of site material
We own or hold licenses to the words, design and brand of SurveyorHires, which copyright and trademark law protect.
Employers still own the listing material they send us and grant us a license to show, format and share it as needed to run SurveyorHires, search engine job results included.
Firm names, seals, trademarks and logos that appear in listings stay with the businesses and agencies that own them.
8. Disclaimer of warranties
We offer SurveyorHires “as is” and “as available.” To the fullest extent the law permits, we disclaim all warranties of any kind, express or implied, among them the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.
We do not promise that SurveyorHires will be free of outages or errors, that any surveying listing is correct or current, or that any employer or applicant is who they claim to be.
9. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent the law permits, SurveyorHires is not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for lost profits, data or goodwill, that result from your use of SurveyorHires, a hiring decision, a working relationship or the result of an application.
Our total liability for every claim related to SurveyorHires, taken together, is capped at the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim arose, or $100 if you paid us nothing.
10. Indemnity
Any survey firm or other employer that posts on SurveyorHires will indemnify us and hold us harmless from claims tied to its posts, for example claims that a post is false, unlawful or discriminatory, and from claims tied to the way it hires.
11. Changes to the board and to these Terms
At our discretion we can modify, suspend or close SurveyorHires in whole or in part.
We can also update these Terms, and every update will show a new “Last updated” date at the top of this page.
If you keep using SurveyorHires after an update is posted, you accept the updated Terms.
A material change affecting paid listings covers only purchases made on or after its effective date.
12. Governing law and contact details
These Terms are governed by the laws of the United States and of the state in which SurveyorHires is organized, setting aside conflict-of-law principles.
