Why was my job held?
Updated 8 October 2026
Every job is checked when it's published, to keep candidates safe. A held job isn't visible to the public. Your job page shows the reason in plain words.
Common reasons
- Asks candidates for money, such as processing, training or uniform fees.
- Personal contact only, for example just a personal mobile number or messaging account instead of applying on JobGlobal.
- Salary far above the usual range for the role.
- Copies a removed post.
- A new employer posting many jobs at once.
- Scam wording, in English, Bangla or Banglish.
- Three or more reports from people who saw the job.
What happens next
Only our trust team can release a held job. They will:
- release it, so it goes live;
- ask for changes: you get a message in Bangla and English. Edit and save the job and it goes back for review; or
- take it down, if it breaks our rules.
If a job asks candidates for money, the company can also be moved back to T0.
How to avoid holds
- Never ask candidates for any payment.
- Let candidates apply on JobGlobal rather than only through a personal number.
- Give a realistic salary range.
- Write your own job text.
