Create an account and sign in
Sign up, confirm your email address and sign in.
In short
Create a free account with your email and a password, confirm your address from the email you get, and sign in from the header. A sign-in lasts 12 hours.
Before you start
- Who: anyone.
- Plan: none. A free account is made with an email address and a password.
- First: an email address you can open, and a password of at least 12 characters.
Create an account
- Press "Create free account" on Home or "Start free" in the header (on a phone, in the bottom bar). An invitation or join link opens the same form.
- Type your "Email" - the address you will sign in with.
- Optionally type "Your name (optional)" - teammates see it. Left empty, a name is made from the part of your email before the @.
- Type a "Password" of at least 12 characters. A tick under it reads "At least 12 characters - good to go". Length is the only rule; the eye button shows what you typed.
- Press "Create account". You are signed in at once, a confirmation email is sent, and the welcome page opens.
Creating the account means you agree to the Terms of Service and the Privacy Policy.
Confirm your email address
- Open the email "Confirm your email address for {{brand}}".
- Press "Confirm my email". The page says "Your email address is confirmed".
- No email? Check spam, then press "Send the link again" on Home's notice or in Settings › Profile.
Sign in
- Press "Sign in" in the header.
- Type your email and password and press "Sign in". Under "or continue with" are Google and Microsoft. "Other ways to sign in" holds "Sign in with a passkey" and "Continue with single sign-on".
- With two-step sign-in on, enter the "6-digit code" from your authenticator app.
- You land where you were. If you opened a link to a screen that needs an account, that screen opens once you are in.
Good to know
- The confirmation link works for 72 hours, and opening it twice does no harm. One link can be sent every five minutes.
- Everything works before you confirm except the things that need a trusted address. These are applying to or reporting a role, and listing a role on the public job board. They are also in-app organization invitations and joining by email domain. Last, emails from hiring teams, the weekly summary, security emails and {{brand}}'s own AI key need it too.
- There is no "Remember me". A sign-in lasts 12 hours, and using the app does not extend it.
- "Sign out" in the account menu ends this browser only. To end others, see See where you are signed in.
- You can change your sign-in email later in Settings › Profile. You can also continue with Google or Microsoft (see /help/settings/sign-in-with-google-or-microsoft), and a company can connect its own identity provider.
- What happens next: you are signed in at once and the welcome page opens. A sign-in lasts 12 hours.
If something goes wrong
- "That email address and password do not match.": a wrong password and an unknown email give the same answer. Use "Forgot password?" if you are not sure.
- "Too many attempts from this device. Wait a few minutes, then try again or reset your password.": after five wrong passwords within 15 minutes each try must wait, from 30 seconds up to 15 minutes. Nobody else is locked out.
- "Use an email address you will keep - addresses from throwaway email services cannot be used.": sign up with a lasting address.
- "New accounts cannot be created right now.": sign-up is closed on this site. An email invitation sent to your address still works.
- "This link does not work" on the confirmation page: the link most likely expired. Press "Send a new link" and use it within three days.
