Employers and employees who got a contract they could both sign
Thousands of small business owners, hiring managers, and new hires have used CareerZoom to put together a contract that works for both sides.
"I run a six-person agency in Texas. CareerZoom saved me thousands on lawyer fees for my first three hires. The non-compete clauses were already adapted to Texas law."
"Got a job offer and the company asked me to draft my own contract. CareerZoom walked me through every clause and explained what I should push back on."
"As a small business owner I was using a generic template I found online. CareerZoom built a California-specific version that actually reflects local law."
"Hired my first remote employee in New York from my Florida office. CareerZoom handled the multi-state piece without me having to figure it out myself."
"Used this for a fixed-term contractor agreement. The end-date language and the IP clauses were drafted exactly the way I would have written them, faster."
"Drafted a clean employment contract for my new sales hire in under 10 minutes. The at-will language and benefits section were already there. Saved a full afternoon."
