Reminders:

  • Notifications from created alerts will be sent to your email address by Devex Alerts <alerts@devex.com>. These notifications will provide you with the number of matches in your saved search, along with links and important job details.
  • Sometimes, alerts from Devex may land in promotions or spam on Gmail. Move them to your primary tab or add alerts@devex.com to your contacts to ensure you don't miss any alerts.
  • Using multiple filters can occasionally lead to an overwhelming number of options or no results at all. We recommend either using fewer filters or opting for a single filter. This will make it easier to narrow down your choices and manage your job search effectively.
