  • Section B applies only if you are using the platform as a Candidate.
  • Section C applies to all users, regardless of which side of the marketplace you are on.

By completing a purchase, creating a profile, or otherwise using the IC Jobs Board, you agree to the section(s) of these Terms & Conditions applicable to your use of the platform.
