We've done our best to create an ad-posting process for you that
is both easy to use and flexible enough to accommodate your individual
design requirements. Using any new system for the first time is
often a challenge. We're here to help. Please feel free to call
our HelpDesk and we'll walk you through the process over the phone or answer
any of your questions.
- Please prepare the text of your ad in a word processing
program first (e.g. Word, WordPerfect). Don't worry about
formatting -- the complete text is most important. This will
save time and possible problems later.
- Go to the Advertiser Log-in
page
- Enter your email address and password and click the "Log-in" button.
If you have forgotten your log-in information, use the password reminder service to reset it.
- When you are logged in to the "My Desk" screen,
click the "Create Job Ad" link.

"French", or "Bilingual" and click the
"Next" button. Please
note: if you wish to receive the second language
discount for a bilingual ad, you must use the bilingual form.

to preview the French version by clicking on the "Switch Language" link at the top of the page.

page and click the "Back", "Edit Listing Info" or "Edit Listing Description" buttons.

If everything looks okay, click
the "Next" button to proceed to the payment section.
- Payment. Select your desired payment option (Credit Card or Invoice Me) and fill in the appropriate contact information. When you're ready to submit your order, click the "Place Order" button. Transactions can take up to 2 minutes to process (but are usually much faster!), so thanks for your patience.
