What JobGuard catches

🚨
Scam signals

Off-platform payment requests, fake urgency, missing company info, too-good-to-be-true rates.

🎭
Spec work traps

Requests for unpaid "test projects", free samples, or "prove your skills" work with no compensation.

💰
Lowball pay

Rates below typical market value for the skills listed — with context on what you should be earning.

🌊
Scope creep risk

Vague deliverables, "unlimited revisions", "and other duties" — phrases that lead to unpaid overwork.

⚖️
IP overreach

Postings that claim ownership of your pre-existing tools, processes, or background work.

FAQ

Which job boards does JobGuard work on?
JobGuard works on any job posting you can open in Chrome — Upwork, LinkedIn, Indeed, Freelancer, Fiverr, and any other job board. Click "Analyze current page" or paste the posting text directly.
What exactly does JobGuard flag?
Scam signals (off-platform payment requests, fake urgency), spec work traps (unpaid test projects), lowball pay (below market rate for the skills listed), scope creep risks (vague or unlimited deliverables), IP overreach, and missing details like no company name or unclear payment terms.
Is JobGuard a guarantee that a job is safe?
No. JobGuard flags common warning signs — it does not guarantee any posting is safe or fraudulent. Always do your own due diligence before accepting work.
Does JobGuard store my job postings?
No. JobGuard stores only your anonymous usage count and a summary of each analysis (risk score and platform). The full posting text is never stored. You can delete all your data at any time from the extension settings.
