For job seekers

Find work, keep your dignity

We built this platform around one principle: job seekers are partners in the process, not inventory. Applying is always free — no success fee, no salary deduction, ever.

1

Create your account and verify your identity

Sign up with your email. Complete basic identity details — full name, phone, location. We do a lightweight identity check to protect both you and employers from fraud.

Why we verify: Employers trust the platform because every candidate profile is real. Verified candidates get significantly more employer views.
2

Build your profile to at least 80%

Complete your work experience, education, skills, and certifications. Upload your existing CV and we'll parse it to speed things up. A completeness score guides you — aim for 80%+ before applying.

Search and save roles that match you

Browse the job feed or use filters: role type, industry, location, salary range, seniority, and work arrangement (remote / onsite / hybrid). Save searches and we'll notify you the moment a matching role goes live.

Every listing shows the full salary range. We do not allow "competitive" or "negotiable" ranges.
4

Apply — always free

Apply with one click using your platform profile, or customise your application with a tailored cover letter and selected portfolio items. There's no fee, no percentage of salary, and no consent step tied to money — submitting an application costs you nothing, ever.

No surprises: Applying, interviewing, and being hired are always free for candidates. There is no fee owed to the platform, now or later.
5

Accept your offer — then relax

If the employer makes an offer, you'll receive it through the platform with the full terms — final salary, benefits, start date. Accept, counter, or decline directly from your account. There's no fee or deduction tied to accepting — what you're offered is what you keep.

Replacement guarantee: If your employment ends within the first few months for reasons outside your control, our replacement guarantee with the employer means it's never treated as a debt or fee you owe.
6

Optionally, boost your profile

If you'd like more visibility in employer searches, you can buy a Profile Boost from your wallet. It changes your ranking in employer search results and adds a "boosted" indicator to your profile for a set period — and nothing else.

A boost never affects your eligibility to apply, how your applications are reviewed, or whether you get hired — it is entirely optional, and most candidates never need one.

Common questions

No. Applying, interviewing, accepting an offer, and being hired are always free for candidates on Serajobs — there is no percentage of your salary owed to the platform, now or ever.
A Profile Boost is a completely optional, paid way to appear more prominently in employer searches for a set period. It never affects your eligibility to apply, how your applications are reviewed, or whether you get hired — most candidates never need one to find work.
Top up your wallet via Paystack (card or bank transfer), then spend credits on a boost from your profile page whenever you like. The price and duration are shown before you buy, and boosting is entirely optional.
Your profile is visible to verified employers by default. You can restrict visibility in your Privacy Settings at any time — for example, making it searchable but anonymous, or fully private (you can still apply to jobs proactively while private).
The replacement guarantee is between the platform and the employer — if your employment ends early for reasons outside your control, the employer may be entitled to a free replacement search through our team. It never creates a fee, deduction, or debt for you.
We comply with the Nigeria Data Protection Act (NDPA). Your data is collected with your explicit consent, used only for matching and platform operations, and you can request an export or deletion at any time. See our Privacy Policy for the full detail.
