When you access or use the Site in your capacity as a client/employee or other representative of an Employer, or if you create an TRS account on behalf of an Employer/Client, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind the Employer to this Agreement. When you create an account on behalf of an Client/Employer, the account belongs to the Employer, and you acknowledge that any and all information that you provide TRS through the account, such as the actions you take and when you take them, will be visible to the Client/Employer. As part of this account you may have an individual profile (“Client Profile”). Your Client Profile consists of information you provide on the Site in the “Account Settings” and “Client Settings” section of the account.
As a Client/ Employer, your account is for business use and not for personal use. TRS is not responsible for and disclaims all liability if your email is used improperly or falsely by a third party. By registering for an TRS account, you agree to receive mandatory email updates regarding account activity to your TRS account. Client/Employers may request that TRS disable an account at any time by contacting the TRS. Please note that TRS may be required to preserve business records pertaining to that account to comply with its obligations under applicable federal or State laws. Alternatively, if an Employer agent wishes to access or delete their Personal Data held by TRS, they should follow the steps listed in the “Your Personal data rights” section of this Privacy Policy.
In some instances, multiple users may be linked to the same account (“a Linked Account”). A Linked Account is created when the primary account owner(s) (“Admins”) of an Client/Employer account invites other users to the same account. Admin(s) and other designated users can provide these other users varying levels of access and functionality (“Roles”) within the account, as described on the site, such as accessing account data, including candidate Personal Data, contained in the account of the user who initiated the invite, or purchasing services from TRS under such account. If you are an Admin or another designated user adding a user to a Role or several Roles, you represent to TRS that you are an authorized representative of this account and that you have the authority to allow this data and access to be shared. You further agree to indemnify and hold harmless TRS from any allegations, claims, actions, suits, demands, damages, liabilities, obligations, losses, settlements, judgments, costs and expenses (including without limitation attorneys’ fees and costs) that result from the sharing of this data, access to your account, and any purchases made under your account. When using a Linked Account, any users with access to certain Roles may have access to any or all account information, such as: communications and actions of all other users and applicants within the Linked Account, resumes, contacts, and billing information, and you consent to such access. When using a Linked Account, any users with access to certain Roles may also have the ability to purchase TRS products under your account, and you agree that you are responsible for the payment of all such purchases made. If you accept another user’s invitation to link your Employer account to their Employer account, you acknowledge that any and all information about your activity in your Employer account, such as the actions you take and when you take them, will be visible to all linked users. Administrators of Linked Accounts may retain certain information Linked Account users provide, such as an email address used to receive applications. Linked Account users will not be able to see your activity, such as your job searches, applications or preferences or your TRS Profile information. You may visit your account settings at any time to unlink your account. The Admin assigned to an Employer account may also unlink any user from that Employer account at any time, and may be notified if your Linked Account is used to login from too many devices.
If your TRS employer account has a credit card or other payment method on file, such as bank account information for Automatic Clearing House (“ACH”) payment, TRS may charge that payment method for any products or services you order and for any outstanding payments, including to correct billing errors.
As a Client, you are responsible for your use of the Site and any tools offered therein, including your decisions regarding your job description, the requirements for your job, compliance with applicable laws, including relevant federal, state, and local laws related to job postings, and whom you interview or hire. TRS assumes no responsibility and disclaims all liability for any actions you take based on any information provided by TRS.

2. Client Services Including TRS Apply and Screener Questions
You also agree that, as technology changes, TRS may activate new technology to relay functions for use in connection with your Job Listings, and that any potential job seeker may indicate interest in Job Listings through TRS website, and that TRS will send applications to the email address you provide. You also agree that TRS may activate a chatbot, which enables those that apply to your Job Ad by answering questions. The answers a Job Seeker submits are presented to you as a job application. When you use TRS candidate management tools, including but not limited to your Employer Dashboard, or by activating the TRS relay function for your Job Listings, you acknowledge and agree that TRS may make available functions allowing you to take actions regarding the Job Seeker, such as tools for setting up an interview, viewing a resume and rejecting a candidate.
You agree that if you use such candidate management tools, TRS may assemble the candidate’s application materials, resume, answers to screener questions, and other information the candidate provides to TRS into one document or webpage. You further agree that TRS is not responsible for maintaining or storing such application materials, and that you are responsible for your own compliance with any applicable record retention, reporting requirements or other applicable law. By using these tools any information shared through the Site will be processed and analyzed by TRS according to this Agreement and TRS’s Privacy Policy. TRS may store such information regardless of whether a job vacancy has been filled. Candidate Summaries may be provided by TRS for certain Job Seekers in the Candidate Details page. These Summaries are populated with information from the Job Seeker and information provided by you in the Job Description. Candidate Summaries are not a recommendation for employment. Employers agree to review the full application and not to use such summaries as the basis for employment decisions. In a Candidate Summary or other product or service on the Site, you may see a verification of a Job Seeker’s skills, certifications, or other qualifications. TRS does not guarantee the accuracy of such verifications or information, and you are solely responsible for verifying information on the Site.
Whether you are using the Site directly or not you are responsible for the contents of your emails, application form, screener questions or their format, criteria you set for inviting candidates to interview, Company Pages that you create, update, or manage, any Job Listings that you post, and any messages that you send to TRS or otherwise, and agree that TRS is not responsible for such content and disclaims all liability for such content, including as to whether such content is legal. You agree that you are solely responsible for compliance with applicable law for all content on the Site, including minimum wage requirements, wage transparency laws, or any other law. If you include voluntary self-identification questions for Job Seekers along with your application materials, you are solely responsible for compliance with applicable laws related to such questions, including the content and format of the questions and your use of the Job Seekers’ responses. You are solely responsible for compliance with all applicable regulatory requirements related to collecting and reporting demographic information about applicants.
If you wish to close or change any Job Listings on the TRS site you agree to promptly notify TRS so that can be done. TRS may provide you with a mechanism for responding to requests for accommodations from Job Seekers. You are responsible for ensuring that your selection criteria are job-related, that you do not pose “disability-related inquiries” or medical inquiries in violation of the law, and that you do not screen out people with disabilities or members of any protected category under the law. You further acknowledge that you are responsible for offering alternative methods of screening, if so required by the Americans with Disabilities Act or any similar law. You are responsible for clearly indicating that reasonable accommodations are available, engaging with and responding to any requests for accommodation, and providing information about how to request an accommodation to Job Seekers.
You agree that TRS may reject or remove any Job Listing or any questions for Job Seekers for any or no reason. For example, TRS may remove any Job Listing or question that directly or indirectly discriminates against Job Seekers. Direct discrimination means, for example, that a Job Listing, requirement, or question specifically makes clear that only Job Seekers matching a certain criteria are wanted, thereby excluding others because of, for example, their gender, race, age or disability. Indirect discrimination means, for example, that a Job Listing, requirement, or question implicitly excludes certain classes of Job Seekers by making it impossible for them to qualify for the job requirements. You understand and agree that it is your responsibility to refrain from posting any Job Listing, requirement, or question that directly or indirectly discriminates against Job Seekers or otherwise violates applicable law. You understand and agree that you are responsible for ensuring that your Job Listing requirements and criteria are job-related and in compliance with applicable law. TRS does not guarantee delivery, your receipt of the Job Seeker’s emails or application materials, or that there will be no mistakes in the transmission or storage of the data. You are solely responsible for checking your Employer dashboard to view job applications and other information. Any notifications, such as emails, you may receive about applications or other activities, are provided solely as a courtesy to you and you should not rely on them.
When Job Seekers apply or RSVP to your Job Listing, TRS may give them the opportunity to provide certain demographic information to TRS, such as race and ethnicity, gender, age, LGBTQ+ community membership, and disability status, as well as whether they have an arrest or conviction record (“demographic data”). This TRS demographic data survey is separate from any voluntary self-identification questions provided by Employers. By using the Program, you agree that TRS may collect demographic data from Job Seekers applying to your Job Listing using TRS’s demographic survey, and that TRS may use information from that survey to evaluate and improve our products. You further agree that you as an Employer have no ability, right, or entitlement to view or access demographic data collected via the TRS demographic data survey pertaining to any Job Seeker or related to any employer by any means including civil discovery, subpoena, or any other legal process without their permission. You agree you are solely responsible for complying with all applicable nondiscrimination laws. TRS disclaims any warranty regarding the demographic composition of Job Seekers applying to any particular job.
When using the TRS website for your Job Listings, you acknowledge and agree that TRS may add functions into the corresponding TRS emails. In addition, TRS may, on your behalf, send out reminder emails to Job Seekers you wish to interview. TRS may also send emails to Job Seekers on your behalf indicating that your Job Listing is potentially a match for the Job Seeker’s resume. When you use screener questions, you may be given the option to instruct TRS to send out rejection notices if the Job Seeker has not answered the questions in the manner set forth in the online instruction. If you choose such an option, such candidates will receive rejection notices and will be set to reject in your candidate dashboard. You further acknowledge that TRS has no discretion in the transmission or storage of these or all other rejection notifications (which is purely mechanical), that transmission or storage is not guaranteed, and that the Job Seeker may not have answered the screener questions accurately. When you use TRS’s candidate management tools, you may be given the option to send automatic rejection notices to candidates whose status you set to “rejected.” If you choose such an option, you acknowledge that TRS has no discretion in the transmission or storage of rejection notices.
Similarly, you may be given the option to use candidate management tools that schedule interviews on your behalf with Job Seekers who meet criteria you have selected. If you choose such an option, Job Seekers will be scheduled for interviews and invited to interviews on your behalf via email based on whether information the Job Seeker has provided to TRS (e.g., answers to screener questions, resume) matches criteria you have set. You are responsible for ensuring that your selection criteria are job-related, that you do not pose “disability-related inquiries” or medical inquiries in violation of the law, and that you do not screen out people with disabilities or members of any protected category under the law. You are responsible for offering alternative methods of screening, if so required by the Americans with Disabilities Act or any similar law. You further agree that TRS has no discretion in the transmission or storage of these interview invitations (which are purely mechanical), that transmission or storage is not guaranteed, and that the information the Job Seeker provided to TRS may not be accurate. TRS may request that Job Seekers confirm their interest in the position before scheduling an interview. It is ultimately the Employer’s responsibility to confirm whether any interviews were scheduled, or to reschedule or cancel interviews if necessary. The decision of who to interview is decided solely by the Employer, who can choose to interview any Job Seeker at any time, and by scheduling such interviews, TRS does not warrant that a Job Seeker is qualified, meets the criteria the Employer has set, or that the information provided by the Job Seeker to TRS is accurate. TRS candidate management tools are intended to allow Employers to more efficiently connect with Job Seekers as they determine, and the sole responsibility for the content of any screener question, any decision to proceed or not proceed with interview or offers, any issues arising from an acceptance or denial of employment, and any other issues arising from the use of candidate management tools is solely with the Employer. By using this and other candidate management tools, you acknowledge and agree that TRS is not procuring employees for Employers or procuring opportunities to work for Job Seekers, and that TRS does not act as your employment agency by offering these candidate management tools.
TRS may highlight to Job Seekers qualifications required for your position in order to help the Job Seekers assess whether to apply for your role.
