How KarirAman verifies a vacancy before it is published

How KarirAman checks each vacancy: the legal entity on AHU, the NIB document, official contacts, P3MI status for jobs abroad, no fees, and why we reject ads.

Summary

  • KarirAman does not list vacancies yet. The steps on this page apply once the employer form opens.
  • We match the legal entity name on AHU, check the NIB business licence document, the company e-mail domain and a phone number from the official website.
  • We accept jobs abroad only from licensed placement agencies (P3MI) that are active on SISKOP2MI with the job order listed.
  • We reject vacancies that ask for fees, recruit only by chat or pay below the minimum wage.

Does KarirAman list vacancies yet?

Not yet. As of October 2026 KarirAman lists no vacancies, and the employer form is not open. Once the form opens, every submission is checked with the steps on this page and held first. Job pages will be published only when the system is ready, and only for vacancies that pass the checks. This page sets out the rules from the start so you know what the "verified" label on KarirAman means.

What do we check before a vacancy is published?

KarirAman checks the employer, not just the text of the ad:

  1. Legal entity name. We search the company (PT) or partnership (CV) name on AHU Online, run by the Directorate General of General Legal Administration at the Ministry of Law. The name must match exactly; a similar name is not enough.
  2. NIB document. The OSS licensing website offers no public search by name or business identification number (NIB). So we ask the employer for the NIB document and match the name on it with the AHU record. An NIB that only appears in an ad does not count as proof.
  3. Company e-mail domain. We send a message to an address on the company's own domain and wait for a reply from that address.
  4. Phone number. We take the number from the company's official website, never from the ad or the recruiter's message.
  5. Jobs abroad. The placement agency (P3MI) must be active on KP2MI's SISKOP2MI, the job order must be listed under that agency, and the agency must not be on the sanctions list.
  6. Financial product sales. For roles selling financial or insurance products, we check the company's licence through OJK's official channel.
  7. State-owned companies (BUMN). We accept BUMN vacancies only from domains listed in the official BUMN careers directory.
  8. Civil service (CPNS and PPPK). KarirAman does not list CPNS or PPPK vacancies. Registration is only through BKN's SSCASN.

Which vacancies do we reject?

KarirAman rejects vacancies that:

  • ask applicants for any fee or deposit, for example for registration, paid training, uniforms, medical checks or a guarantee. Kemnaker lists charges like these as a sign of a fake vacancy;
  • recruit only through WhatsApp or Telegram, or give only a free e-mail address;
  • describe commission-only work as salaried, or present paid online tasks as a job;
  • pay less than the minimum wage of the place of work. Law 6/2023 Article 88E(2) forbids employers from paying below the minimum wage;
  • require a probation period in a fixed-term contract (PKWT). PP 35/2021 Article 12 makes such a condition void;
  • hold original diplomas or personal documents as a guarantee, which Ministry of Manpower circular SE Menaker M/5/HK.04.00/V/2025 prohibits;
  • set discriminatory criteria, such as age, appearance or marital status, with no objective reason. Ministry of Manpower circular SE Menaker M/6/HK.04/V/2025 prohibits discrimination in recruitment.

Jobs abroad follow the same order of rules used across KarirAman: Law 18/2017 Article 30(1) says Indonesian migrant workers (PMI) cannot be charged placement costs; Permen P2MI 17/2025 makes the employer bear placement costs and lets the worker be charged only for costs written and itemised in the placement agreement (Perjanjian Penempatan); we reject any vacancy that asks for money outside that.

Who checks, and how is the decision recorded?

A KarirAman editor checks every submission against the list above. The result of each step is recorded with its date. Before a vacancy is published, a second editor reviews that record. Published job pages will show what we checked and when.

How long does a vacancy stay up, and when is it closed?

Every vacancy has a deadline of no more than 45 days after it is posted. A vacancy closes earlier if the employer tells us the post is filled or cancelled, or if we find a problem. A closed vacancy is marked as closed, no longer appears as an open vacancy, and its job details are removed from the data we give search engines.

What happens if a verified vacancy turns out to be a problem?

Report it through the report form or the contact page. We put the vacancy on hold straight away, check the employer again and close the vacancy if the report is confirmed. We record every verification mistake on the corrections page.

Frequently asked questions

Does the 'verified' label mean a vacancy is definitely safe?

No. The label means the checks on this page passed on the date shown. KarirAman cannot guarantee how an employer will treat you after you are hired. Still read your employment contract, never pay a fee, and report anything that seems wrong.

Why is an NIB printed in a job ad not enough?

Because an NIB in an ad can be copied from another company. The OSS licensing website offers no public search by company name or NIB, so we ask the employer for the NIB document and match the name on it with AHU records and the company's official contacts.

How long does a verified vacancy stay on KarirAman?

Every vacancy has a deadline of no more than 45 days after it is posted. After that, or once the post is filled, the vacancy is marked closed and no longer appears as an open vacancy.
