Troubleshooting
Why don’t I see member pricing?
If you don’t see the member pricing for which you are eligible, you are likely not logged in to the job board with your organization’s membership credentials.
On the Post Duration screen, where it says Be sure to log in to get the special member rate, click the words log in. A window will appear where you can enter your membership credentials. You can also log in using the link in the top right corner of the screen on any page.
