Employer Contact Messages
ReverseApply operates as a neutral intermediary that facilitates direct communication between employers and candidates. When an employer sends a contact request, the message is composed and sent solely by the employer.
• ReverseApply is not a party to, and bears no responsibility for, the content of any message sent by an employer through the contact request feature.
• ReverseApply will never, through any platform feature or communication, ask you as a candidate to share personal financial data, make a payment, or provide credentials such as passwords or identity documents. ReverseApply is free to use for candidates.
• If you receive a message requesting personal data, payment, or credentials, or containing suspicious links, treat it as a potential scam and do not comply. You may report it via the platform’s support channel.
• Employers are contractually prohibited from using the contact request feature for fraudulent, deceptive, or harassing purposes. Violations may result in immediate account termination and reporting to relevant authorities.
The presence of an employer message on this platform does not constitute an endorsement or verification of its content by ReverseApply.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account:
