I've noticed in the past few weeks that around 75% of relevant job ads from ProZ have suddenly been redirected to my Promotions folder in my business Gmail account. How do I get them to go to my primary inbox?

Just remove the Promotions category in Settings Jan 15, 2019

That's why I don't let technology make such decisions on my behalf. It inevitably ends up getting them wrong.

If you still want your different categories, you can use the filter settings to define what goes where.

You can add ProZ to your contacts, that ought to work. Personally, I do want to keep the promotions tab, otherwise my main tab gets filled with non-important stuff.
In my case, Gmail had been filtering some ProZ offers, particularly a Chinese, 1 million word offer that keeps coming back (doesn't look legit, but who knows?).
