How do I change what RJ Recruiter looks for, or pause it?
Edit your preferences any time — and the reasons matches go quiet.
Last updated August 31, 2026- Open RJ Recruiter and choose Refine, or go to Account and the Job Preferences tab
- Change what you are looking for — subspecialty, location, schedule, pay
- Add deal-breakers, or employers you do not want to hear from
- Use the Active / Paused switch to stop matches and RJ Recruiter emails without losing your setup
If your matches go quiet
Pausing RJ Recruiter stops its emails as well as its matching, and switching it back on turns both back on. Your setup is kept either way.
Two other things stop matches arriving, and neither looks like what it is.
Emptying something it needs — clearing your location, say — pauses matching even though you did not press pause. If it reads as Paused and you know you did not pause it, check whether one of your preferences is now blank.
A deal-breaker drawn too widely can rule out almost everything. If matches stopped right after you added one, that is the first thing to loosen.
