Can I write off job listing services?

Expenses for job listing services are deductible as business expenses if they are directly related to hiring employees for your business. This is applicable when the expense is both ordinary (common and accepted in your industry) and necessary (helpful and appropriate for your business). For instance, if you run a small business and use a job listing service to hire new employees, this cost can be deducted as a business expense. However, if you are an individual seeking employment, these expenses are not deductible.
