company-skip-list Company skip list Block unwanted employers during discovery using blocked company keywords in Settings. 6

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.
