## What it is
|
|
|
|
The **company skip list** is the **Blocked company keywords** field in **Settings → Scoring Settings**. Any job whose **employer / company name** contains one of your tokens (case-insensitive substring match) is **dropped during discovery** and is never imported.
|
|
|
|
## Why it exists
|
|
|
|
You may want to avoid certain agencies, staffing brands, or employers without having to filter them out of every search manually.
|
|
|
|
## How to use it
|
|
|
|
1. Open **Settings** and expand **Scoring Settings**.
|
|
2. Find **Company skip list (blocked keywords)**.
|
|
3. Add tokens one at a time, or paste a comma- or newline-separated list.
|
|
4. Click **Save Changes**.
|
|
5. Run the pipeline again — blocked companies apply to **new discovery only**; they do not remove jobs already in the database.
|
|
|
|
### Tips
|
|
|
|
- Use substrings that reliably identify the employer on listings, for example `recruit`, `staffing`, or a distinctive part of a brand name.
|
|
- Avoid overly short tokens that could match unrelated companies (for example a three-letter acronym shared by many firms).
|
|
- The list is capped in Settings validation (max 200 entries, each up to 200 characters).
|
|
- To block more precisely, prefer the exact spelling that appears on job posts you see in JobOps.
|
|
|
|
### Maintenance
|
|
|
|
- **Add** entries when you notice employers you never want to see again.
|
|
- **Remove** entries if you blocked too much — save, then run discovery again.
|
|
- **Review periodically** — staffing brand names change, and your targets may shift.
|
|
- **Existing jobs** are unchanged; use the Jobs UI or **Danger Zone** in Settings if you need to clear old rows.
|
|
|
|
## Common problems
|
|
|
|
### Blocked companies still appear
|
|
|
|
- Confirm you clicked **Save Changes** after editing the list.
|
|
- Remember: only **new** runs apply the filter. Old jobs stay until you delete or clear them.
|
|
|
|
### Too many jobs disappeared
|
|
|
|
- A token may be too broad. Remove or narrow it in Settings.
