  • Support Dziseldra, Empower Yourself
    Dziseldra was free for more than a year and to sustain ourselves we relied on sponsorships and advertisement revenue, including Google ads. However, the support we received fell short of covering our operating costs, let alone compensating our hard working team. Hence, we had to make the difficult decision to transition to a subscription-based model.

No, subscribing is not a requirement for applying to the jobs advertised on Dziseldra. You can directly contact the recruiting company and follow their application process. However, subscribers gain the benefit of accessing clear instructions on how to apply, provided on all our job posts.

If you can read this, we know you are smart enough, but please don't be pathetic enough to use the service and not be able to pay Nu. 99:))) Donec et orci aliquet nisl suscipit molestie sed sit amet tortor.
