# Spot for Job and Career Services Companies

Get quotes from job and career services insurance providers with Spot.

We get quotes that fit how you advise, screen or place candidates, and send certificates when an employer client asks for them.

[Get Started](https://app.spot.insure/signup?coverage=professional-errors-omissions&industry=job-and-career-services&icp=professional-services). Spot is not an insurance carrier and takes no commissions on premiums; you can keep your broker or switch.

## How Spot helps

1. **Show who hires, places and pays workers.** Your Spot team traces the path from an employer’s request through screening, ranking, referral, placement and payroll, marking which entity makes each decision and which one pays the worker.
2. **Check the staffing agreement before you sign.** Employers send staffing and services agreements with indemnities and insurance minimums. Spot checks them against your policies and flags anything you can’t meet yet.
3. **Compare quotes on placement and platform errors.** Once your broker has proposals in hand, Spot shows how each one treats a placement or screening error, a platform failure and a candidate-data breach.
4. **Tell us when placements or states change.** Temporary placements and new states change your payroll and classifications. Message your Spot team in Slack and we keep your broker current.

## Who we help

- **Recruiting and search firms.** Clients rely on your screening and referrals, so a bad placement can turn into an errors and omissions claim.
- **Staffing agencies.** When you employ the temporary workers, workers’ compensation follows each employing entity and every state where they work.
- **Hiring platforms.** Automated matching and assessments are a technology service, and employers will ask what your technology errors and omissions policy covers.
- **Career services and coaching companies.** You hold resumes, identity documents and interview recordings that a cyber quote needs to see.

## Coverage

- [Professional errors and omissions (E&O)](https://spot.insure/insurance/professional-errors-omissions)
- [Workers’ compensation](https://spot.insure/insurance/workers-compensation)
- [Cyber liability](https://spot.insure/insurance/cyber)
- [Technology errors and omissions (E&O)](https://spot.insure/insurance/technology-errors-omissions)
- [General liability](https://spot.insure/insurance/general-liability)

## When to get this coverage

- **You’re moving from referrals into staffing.** Employing the workers you place changes your workers’ compensation and your errors and omissions questions, so revise the submission before the first placement.
- **An employer client requires proof of coverage.** Check the agreement’s limits and any additional insured wording, then get the certificate ready before the first placement starts.
- **You’re adding background checks or assessments.** New candidate data and screening vendors belong in the cyber application, along with how long you keep each record.
- **You’re placing temporary workers in another state.** Confirm the employing entity, work state, payroll and duties for each group before the quote goes out.
- **You’re running a career fair or hiring event.** Events with candidates and clients on site should be listed on your general liability submission.

## Common questions

Also known as job board insurance, job platform insurance, hiring platform insurance, career coach insurance and career services company insurance.

### What insurance does a job board need?

A job board or hiring platform usually starts with tech E&O for the platform, professional E&O for any screening or advice, and cyber for candidate data. If you employ the people you place, workers’ compensation follows. Spot draws that line for brokers.

### Does calling ourselves a platform keep us out of employment-agency rules?

The label alone doesn’t settle it. EEOC guidance discusses agencies that regularly refer employees, so whether you take job orders, rank candidates or make referrals matters. Spot documents that workflow for your broker, and you can take the same map to counsel.

### What does a workers’ compensation quote need?

It needs the employing entity, each person’s work state, payroll, job duties and expected hiring dates. Your Spot team collects them and tells your broker when a placement changes who employs the worker.

### Do we need technology errors and omissions as well as professional errors and omissions?

If you sell automated matching or a hiring platform as a service, ask about both. Spot compares how each form treats your platform’s outputs and your recruiters’ advice.

### How does Spot get paid?

Spot charges a monthly fee based on your annual insurance spend and takes no commissions on premiums. You can keep the broker who knows your staffing program or switch to a different one.
