Terms of Use

Terms for using HireMN.

These Terms of Use govern access to and use of HireMN, including employer profiles, job listings, applications, messaging, and related services.

Effective date: September 26, 2026.

By accessing or using HireMN, you agree to these Terms of Use and our Privacy Policy. If you use HireMN on behalf of a company or other organization, you represent that you are authorized to accept these terms on its behalf. If you do not agree, do not use the service.

1. Eligibility and accounts

You must be legally capable of entering into these terms. If you are under the age of majority where you live, you may use HireMN only with the involvement and consent of a parent or legal guardian to the extent required by law.

You are responsible for providing accurate account information, maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials, and for activity conducted through your account. Notify HireMN promptly if you believe your account has been compromised.

2. What HireMN provides

HireMN is a Minnesota-focused employment marketplace that helps candidates discover opportunities and helps employers publish jobs, manage applicants, and communicate with candidates. HireMN is not an employer, staffing agency, background-check provider, or guarantor of employment unless expressly stated otherwise for a particular service.

HireMN does not make hiring decisions for employers and does not guarantee that a candidate will receive a response, interview, offer, or job.

3. Curated jobs and unclaimed employer profiles

HireMN may create informational employer profiles and curated job listings using publicly available information or information from an employer's official website or recruiting system. Curated listings are intended to help candidates discover current Minnesota opportunities and ordinarily direct candidates to the original employer source to apply.

A curated listing or unclaimed employer profile does not mean that the employer created the listing, has claimed the profile, has endorsed HireMN, or has a commercial relationship with HireMN. HireMN identifies curated/external listings separately from jobs posted directly through HireMN where appropriate.

Employers may request to claim or correct a company profile. HireMN may require reasonable evidence of affiliation before granting employer-management access.

4. Employer responsibilities

Employers are responsible for the accuracy, legality, and completeness of information they submit, including job duties, location, compensation, qualifications, workplace type, hiring status, and application instructions. Employers must keep postings current and must not publish fake, misleading, discriminatory, unlawful, deceptive, or already-filled roles as active openings.

Employers are solely responsible for their recruiting, interviewing, screening, employment decisions, offers, compensation, workplace practices, and compliance with applicable employment, wage-and-hour, anti-discrimination, privacy, and other laws. Additional standards appear in the Employer Guidelines and Job Posting Standards.

5. Candidate responsibilities

Candidates are responsible for the accuracy of information they submit, including profile details, résumés, work history, credentials, screening answers, and messages. Candidates may not impersonate another person, submit fraudulent credentials, misuse employer contact information, or interfere with another person's application.

Candidates should independently evaluate employers and opportunities before providing sensitive information, traveling, accepting employment, or making financial commitments.

6. Applications, messages, and communications

When you apply to a job through HireMN, the information you choose to submit may be made available to the employer associated with that job. Employers control their own hiring decisions and response times.

HireMN may send transactional or service communications relating to account security, applications, messages, job alerts, employer activity, support requests, and material changes to the service. Where required, marketing communications will include applicable preference or opt-out controls.

7. Trust and marketplace signals

Signals such as Confirmed Open, Verified Employer, Responsive Employer, freshness labels, or similar indicators have only the meanings described by HireMN. They are informational platform signals, not endorsements or guarantees of employment, compensation, employer quality, workplace safety, legal compliance, or hiring outcomes. See Trust & Safety for additional detail.

8. External sites and services

Some jobs and employer profiles link to websites, application systems, maps, payment providers, or other services operated by third parties. HireMN does not control those services and is not responsible for their availability, content, security, privacy practices, or actions. Your use of a third-party service is governed by that provider's own terms and policies.

9. Content and intellectual property

HireMN and its site design, software, branding, and original content are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws. Except as permitted by law or expressly authorized by HireMN, you may not copy, resell, reverse engineer, scrape at scale, circumvent access controls, or use HireMN content to create a competing database or service.

You retain ownership of content you submit. By submitting content for display or operation of the service, you grant HireMN a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, format, display, and transmit that content as reasonably necessary to provide, secure, improve, and promote the HireMN service. You represent that you have the rights necessary to submit that content.

Company names, logos, and third-party trademarks remain the property of their respective owners. Their appearance on HireMN does not imply sponsorship or endorsement.

HireMN's occupation and role-understanding features include adapted data from the O*NET® 31.0 Database from the U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration, licensed under CC BY 4.0. HireMN normalizes and maps this taxonomy for search and matching. O*NET occupation-level information describes occupations generally and does not represent requirements stated by a particular employer unless the employer's actual posting independently supports them.

10. Prohibited conduct

  • Fraud, scams, impersonation, phishing, deceptive recruiting, or misrepresentation.
  • Unlawful discrimination, harassment, or unlawful job requirements.
  • Posting jobs known to be closed, fake, materially misleading, or unrelated to a legitimate hiring need.
  • Harvesting personal information, sending abusive or unsolicited platform messages, or using candidate information for unrelated purposes.
  • Introducing malware, probing or bypassing security controls, automated abuse, denial-of-service activity, or unauthorized access.
  • Using HireMN or information obtained through HireMN to violate another person's rights or applicable law.

11. Moderation, suspension, and removal

HireMN may review, correct, limit distribution of, pause, remove, or refuse content when reasonably necessary to maintain marketplace quality, address reports, comply with law, protect users, or enforce these terms. HireMN may restrict or terminate accounts for material or repeated violations, fraud, security threats, or misuse of the service.

HireMN may also expire or remove curated listings when a source indicates that the opening is no longer current.

12. Paid features, promotions, and refunds

HireMN may offer paid employer features or promotional products. Any applicable price, billing frequency, material restrictions, and purchase terms will be presented before you authorize a charge. HireMN will not charge a payment method merely because an employer creates a free account, claims a profile, or posts a job through a free posting path.

Promotional products purchase visibility or distribution services only. They do not guarantee applications, interviews, hires, impressions, reach, or any particular recruiting result. For time-limited promotional products, the service period begins when payment is confirmed and HireMN applies the purchased benefit to the qualifying job or employer account.

Refund requests are handled under the HireMN Refund Policy and applicable law.

13. Service availability and changes

HireMN may add, modify, suspend, or discontinue features and may perform maintenance that temporarily affects availability. HireMN does not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation, permanent availability of any listing, or preservation of any particular feature.

14. Disclaimers

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, HIREMN IS PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS. HIREMN DISCLAIMS IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTY THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR THAT ANY JOB, EMPLOYER, CANDIDATE, APPLICATION, OR THIRD-PARTY INFORMATION WILL BE ACCURATE OR COMPLETE.

Nothing in these terms excludes rights or warranties that cannot lawfully be excluded.

15. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, HIREMN WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST BUSINESS, LOST DATA, LOST OPPORTUNITIES, OR EMPLOYMENT DECISIONS ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, HIREMN'S AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID HIREMN FOR THE SERVICE GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM DURING THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO LIABILITY OR (B) $100. This limitation does not apply where applicable law prohibits it.

16. Indemnification by business users

If you use HireMN on behalf of an employer or other business, you agree, to the extent permitted by law, to defend and indemnify HireMN from third-party claims, damages, liabilities, and reasonable costs arising from your job postings, hiring practices, content, violation of these terms, or violation of another person's rights or applicable law.

17. Governing law and disputes

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Minnesota, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Unless applicable law requires otherwise, claims arising from these terms or HireMN will be brought in a state or federal court with jurisdiction in Minnesota, and the parties consent to personal jurisdiction in those courts.

18. Changes to these terms

HireMN may update these terms as the service changes. Material changes will be reflected by an updated effective date and, when appropriate, additional notice through the service or by email. Continued use of HireMN after revised terms become effective constitutes acceptance to the extent permitted by law.

19. General terms

If any provision of these terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in effect. A failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. These terms, together with policies expressly incorporated by reference, form the agreement governing your use of HireMN.
