Guide for Jobseekers

Posting a job

One of the major improvements with this upgrade is our job posting module. We have made it easier for you to create job postings on our site. A job posting now consists of six separate sections:

1. SETTINGS	All employers can create a profile and attach it here to your posting by checking the box.
2. JOB BASICS Take notice of two things: first, we added Job Function to the job posting. This gives you the ability to select more options so more jobseekers can find your jobs. Second, we have added a new Editor Toolbar in the Job Description field. This gives you the ability to add basic formatting to your job listing.
3. JOB DETAILS	In the Job Details box, you'll find optional information to share about a particular job; the more you share, the more likely you are to find a strong candidate match to the position.
4. LOCATION You can add multiple locations or keep it general.  At least one location is required.
5. CONTACT INFORMATION	If you want to direct jobseekers to your site to apply for a job, put the URL in the "Apply URL" field.
6. APPLICATIONS This section is completely optional. If you want applicants to apply through our site, just put the check in the box and then choose who you want to receive the applicant's job materials.

Six simple steps and your posting will be live on our site.
