    \r\n

    A placement agreement does not guarantee you an employment contract. If the employer still decides not to offer you an employment contract, the employer must notify Jobpackers within 5 working days before arrival, using the “cancel placement form” button.
    \nWhen an employer fails to do this, you should make a notification on the portal. With the button in the employers list “No Show”. If the employer does not cancel in time the advertisement will be deleted and the credits for chatting with other candidates will be stopped. The employer will have to place another ad for access to chat with candidates. <\/p>\n <\/article>\r\n <\/details>\r\n <\/li>\r\n \r\n

    \r\n \r\n Can I cancel a placement form?<\/span>\r\n \r\n \r\n <\/svg>\r\n <\/summary>\r\n \r\n
    \r\n

    If a placement document is approved by both parties then you can still cancel it. The placement document serves as the basis for the employment contract with the employer. It is important that good agreements are made.
    \nIf you still want to cancel the placement you can do so up to a maximum of 5 working days after the acceptance of the placement document. By pressing the “cancel placement” button in the employer overview you waive the planned work. It is important to do this in a timely manner or your account will be locked for 60 days. <\/p>\n <\/article>\r\n <\/details>\r\n <\/li>\r\n \r\n

    \r\n

    It is wise to leave your details and CV online on the platform. This allows another employer to chat with you at any time. Of course, you can also look for another employer yourself. Chances are you’ll quickly find an employer you can work for! <\/p>\n <\/article>\r\n <\/details>\r\n <\/li>\r\n \r\n

    \r\n \r\n How do I record agreements with an employer?<\/span>\r\n \r\n \r\n <\/svg>\r\n <\/summary>\r\n \r\n
    \r\n

    If you have chosen the employer you want to work for and the employer agrees, the employer will create a placement document.
    \nThis placement confirmation contains the details of both parties and the corresponding agreements. You will receive the completed placement document via chat, after which you approve it. <\/p>\n <\/article>\r\n <\/details>\r\n <\/li>\r\n \r\n

    When you and the employer decide on an employment contract, you want to make good arrangements together. You record these agreements in the placement document. These agreements include starting date, hourly wage and other employment conditions such as the duration of the placement and probationary period. The placement document is separate from the (future) employment contract that will later be concluded with the new employer. <\/p>\n <\/article>\r\n <\/details>\r\n <\/li>\r\n \r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2269816932013853,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":8,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":"","_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-18309","page","type-page","status-publish","entry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nFAQ for job seekers -
