Artificial Intelligence Transparency DCJobs.asia uses AI-powered technologies to support recruitment activities. These technologies may include: resume parsing; skills extraction; semantic search; job recommendations; candidate recommendations; relevance scoring; profile enrichment; employer search assistance; duplicate profile detection. These technologies are intended to assist users and improve the efficiency of our Platform. They are not intended to replace human judgment.

Employers should independently assess all applicants before making hiring decisions.

Resume (CV) parsing in particular: when you upload a CV or resume (including through our quick-apply flows from job aggregators), automated AI tools process the document server-side to extract structured information, such as your contact details, work history, skills and certifications, and pre-populate your profile. The contents of your CV are transmitted to a third-party AI processing provider for this extraction. Under the provider's commercial API terms, your CV content is not used to train their AI models. Like all API providers, they may transiently retain and process transmitted content for security and abuse monitoring in accordance with their terms of service. You can review, correct or remove the extracted information at any time from your candidate dashboard, and you can delete your CV at any time.

Candidate Sourcing from Public Profiles As part of our recruitment services, we may identify individuals whose publicly available professional profiles, such as public profiles on professional networking sites obtained through third-party data providers, suggest relevant skills and experience for roles we are recruiting for. Where we do this: we rely on our legitimate interests in connecting qualified professionals with relevant opportunities, in accordance with the PDPA; the information we obtain is limited to your professional profile (name, job title, work history, skills, education) and, where our data provider can locate one, a personal email address used solely to contact you about relevant opportunities; we create an internal candidate record that is hidden by default. It is not visible to employers and not searchable by anyone until you register with us and actively opt in; where we hold a contactable email address, we will write to you to introduce ourselves and explain how to opt in, opt out or have your information deleted; sourced information is retained only as long as it remains useful for recruitment purposes, in line with our data retention schedule. If we have created a profile sourced from public information, you may access, correct or delete it, or ask us not to contact you, by writing to our Data Protection Officer at dpo@dcjobs.asia. These requests are handled under the same procedure and timelines as requests from registered users (see Your Rights, Access and Correction Requests, and Deleting Your Account).
Automated Decision-Making We may use automated systems to assist with: ranking search results; identifying duplicate accounts; detecting suspicious activity; recommending candidates; recommending jobs. These automated processes are designed to support the operation of the Platform. They are not used as the sole basis for employment decisions made by employers.
