The name of the company making the offer must be present in
the posting. Professional recruiters must place the string
"3rd party recruiter" on the "Keywords:" (see Q-12) line. (Recruiters
do not need to identify themselves as such on the subject line. The
Keywords: line is sufficient. Third party recruiters are not required
to name the hiring organization (client) in their postings, although
they are welcome to if they choose.) Many universities are legally
restricted from handling commercial traffic. This will enable
universities to comply with the law. This is especially true if there
is a placement fee required of the person accepting the position. Other
posters should use the "Organization:" line to indicate the name of the
company making the offer, and also include the name of the company in
the body of the posting.
Examples:
Subject: US-TX-Dallas Foobar Developer, Acme Widget Inc
Organization: Foobar division, Acme Widget Inc
Subject: US-TX-Dallas Foobar Developer
Keywords: 3rd party recruiter
Organization: Matchmaker Personnel Inc
