What is a .careers domain?
.careers is an unrestricted generic TLD for hiring and career services, managed by Binky Moon, LLC under Identity Digital. IANA shows it entering the root on 17 December 2013, which makes it one of the earliest strings of ICANN’s 2012 round to go live. Wild Corner, LLC held it first; Binky Moon took over in the 2018 portfolio transfer.
| Field | Entry |

| Registry operator | Binky Moon, LLC (Identity Digital Inc.) |
| Live in the root | 17 December 2013 |

Who buys a .careers name in India?
Two groups dominate: employers who want a stand-alone hiring site, and the recruitment, placement and counselling firms that sell career outcomes. An employer moving its openings from a sub-page to yourbrand.careers gets an address it can print on campus posters, LinkedIn banners and referral cards without a long URL.
| Buyer | Sample name | Purpose of the site |
|---|---|---|
| Mid-size employer’s HR team | yourbrand.careers | Openings, benefits, application form |
| Placement or staffing agency | bpohiring.careers | Candidate registration and client briefs |
| Overseas recruiting agent | gulfroles.careers | Vacancies abroad and document checklists |
| Career counsellor | afterclass12.careers | Stream and college guidance sessions |
| Resume and interview coach | cvfix.careers | Paid CV rewrites and mock interviews |
An overseas recruiter should note that a domain is only an address: recruiting Indians for jobs abroad still requires the registration certificate issued under the Emigration Act, 1983.
How much is a .careers domain in rupees?
A .careers name costs ₹9,471 in year one and ₹11,374 in each later year at WebJi®, all before 18% GST. Three years add up to ₹32,219 (₹9,471 + ₹11,374 + ₹11,374). That places it in the upper band of open gTLDs, so check the renewal line before committing to a long term.

Are there conditions on registering .careers?
There is no eligibility test: an employer, an agency, a student or a freelancer can register a .careers name with ordinary contact details. Names go to whoever completes the order first. The registry’s acceptable-use terms still apply, which matters here because fake job offers are a common fraud; a hiring site that collects fees or personal data should state its company details plainly.
- Documents: not required by the registry; a GSTIN on the invoice is optional.
- Trademarks: registering another company’s brand as name.careers invites a UDRP complaint.
- Candidate data: collect CVs over HTTPS and keep a published privacy notice.
.careers or a careers page on your .com: which works better?
A careers page on the main domain is enough for a company that hires a few people a year; a separate .careers site pays off when hiring is continuous, multi-city or campaign-driven. Search engines rank both the same way, so the gain is memorability and the freedom to run a recruiting site with its own design and tracking.
- Keep it on the .com or .in if you post under 20 roles a year and the site is small.
- Choose .careers for campus drives, walk-in campaigns and employer-brand videos.
- Consider .jobs only if you accept its higher price and sponsored-TLD rules.
- Use .management at ₹2,861 if the business is leadership coaching rather than hiring.
Launching a .careers hiring site
Most employers point the .careers name at a light job board and route applications to a shared HR mailbox. A plugin-based board runs well on WordPress hosting, and addresses such as apply@yourbrand.careers come with business email. For renewals, grace periods and moving an existing name, see the renewal guide and domain transfer; the full extension list is on domain registration India.
Frequently asked questions
Is .careers the same as .jobs?
No. .careers is an open generic TLD run by Binky Moon, LLC, while .jobs is a sponsored TLD with its own operator and policies. At WebJi® .careers is also cheaper: ₹9,471 against ₹13,257 for the first year, before GST.
What does .careers cost for three years?
₹32,219 before 18% GST: the ₹9,471 first year plus two renewals at ₹11,374. Because renewal is higher than year one, budget on the renewal figure for every year after the first.
Can a placement agency without a company registration buy .careers?
Yes. Proprietors and individuals can register; the registry asks for no incorporation papers. What it does expect is a real name, a working phone and an email that answers verification messages within the deadline.
How old is the .careers extension?
IANA recorded the delegation on 17 December 2013, so the zone has been live for more than a decade. It began with Wild Corner, LLC and moved to Binky Moon, LLC in 2018.
Does .careers support DNSSEC?
Yes. The zone is signed and has a secure delegation at the root, so a hiring site can enable DNSSEC once its DNS provider publishes the DS record for the name.
