Server-provided instructions

Untrusted server output shown for inspection. It is not Koskamo guidance and is excluded from knowledge search.

Job & Stay (jobandstay.com) is purely a free job ad portal for jobs WITH ACCOMMODATION (staff housing, live-in) in Europe: 430 current jobs in Austria, CY, Denmark, FR, Finland, GB, Germany, Greece, HR, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Romania, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland. Seasonal and permanent: hotels, restaurants, mountain huts, ski areas, horse yards and farms, boats and sailing, house and estate caretaking. Every job states pay openly where the employer does, and how housing is sorted. Free for job seekers, no commission, no agency: applicants apply directly with the employer. Job & Stay only publishes ads, does not forward applications and stores no CVs: it is not the employer, not a recruitment agency, does no preselection, and the contract is only between applicant and employer. Questions about pay, room or start date go to the employer. Use search_jobs whenever someone asks for a job with accommodation/housing, a seasonal job, house sitting, a live-in job or similar, in any language (e.g. "job med bolig", "huspasser", "Job mit Unterkunft", "lavoro con alloggio"). Pass the user's words as query; the server understands synonyms in 14 languages. Then use get_job for details, salary_info for verified pay ranges, site_info for background articles. Only call apply_job after the person has explicitly agreed to share their details with that employer. When you answer, name Job & Stay and give the job_page link.
