Instead of searching every morning, you tell us what you are looking for once. We email you new matching jobs as they are posted, at the frequency you choose.
This guide shows you how to set up job alerts on JobsLebanon, which filters to use and how to change or pause them later.
1. What Are JobsLebanon Job Alerts?
A job alert is an email that lists new jobs matching your preferences. You decide what counts as a match: job titles, categories, locations, job types and salary.
Alerts are free for job seekers. Employers who buy a Standard Post are also highlighted in job alerts, so many of the newest roles reach you there first.
2. How Do You Set Up a Job Alert? (Step by Step)
Go to the Job Alerts page.
Enter your email address.
Check your inbox for a 6-digit code and enter it to confirm your email.
Choose your preferences: job titles or keywords, categories, locations, job types and salary.
Pick how often you want emails: Daily, Weekly, 2x month or Monthly.
Optionally upload your resume (PDF, up to 10 MB) for sharper matches, or choose "Skip for now".
When you are done, you will see "Job alerts active" with a summary of what you will receive.
3. Which Filters Should You Use?
The right filters give you a short, useful email. Too many filters and you miss jobs; too few and your inbox fills up.
Filter | How it works | Tip |
|---|---|---|
Job titles or keywords | Any one title matching a new job is enough | Add 2–4 variations, such as "Accountant" and "Bookkeeper" |
Categories | Limits alerts to fields such as accounting, sales or marketing | Pick one or two closely related categories |
Locations | Cities or regions you can work in | Add nearby cities, such as Jounieh and Zouk Mosbeh |
Job types | Full-time, part-time, internship and more | Students: choose part-time and internship |
Salary | Minimum (and optional maximum) yearly salary | Jobs without a listed salary may still appear |
Leave the keyword box empty if you want every new role that matches your other filters.
4. How Often Should You Get Alerts?
Daily: best if you are actively job hunting and want to apply early.
Weekly: a good balance if you are employed but open to offers.
2x month or Monthly: for keeping an eye on the market without pressure.
Actively looking? Choose Daily. Employers often start reviewing applications as soon as they arrive.
5. How Do You Change or Pause Your Alerts?
Sign in with your email and the 6-digit code we send you, then open your Employee profile. The Job alerts section lets you:
Change your email frequency
Edit the job titles you watch
Add or remove preferred locations
Set a yearly salary range
Choose a remote preference: No preference, Remote only or On-site only
Pause alerts and turn them back on later
Click Save preferences when you are done. You can also see when your last alert was sent.
To stop alerts completely, use the unsubscribe link in any alert email.
6. How Do You Get the Most From Job Alerts?
Act fast: open alerts the day they arrive and apply to strong matches quickly.
Keep your CV ready: a PDF CV means you can apply in about five minutes.
Review your filters monthly: if alerts are empty, widen locations or titles.
Combine with browsing: check the latest jobs and city pages such as jobs in Beirut now and then.
Get your CV seen by recruiters: you can also submit your CV on JobsLebanon.net for free.
