Create a job: required fields and next steps

Create a role, review required details, and configure hiring and publication.

Before you start

You need permission to add jobs and available subscription capacity. Prepare the description, location, experience range, qualifications, and required skills. Agency accounts also need a customer.

Choose how to start

Open Jobs and click Add Job.
In Add a New Job, choose Start from Blank, Paste Job Details, or Upload a Job File when these options are available. Otherwise, complete the job form directly.
For file pre-fill, use a supported TXT, PDF, DOC, DOCX, or RTF description. Review and correct every suggested value.

Job Title, Job Code, Job Type. Generate the code from the title or use your internal format.
Industry, Employer Type, Job Function. Choose Industry first to load dependent choices.
Education Level, Qualifications, Min Experience, Max Experience.

Optional details

Department and Salary Range are optional. Review salary currency, frequency, and public visibility; external boards may have additional requirements.

Save or create

Save draft keeps work for later; it is not an active published job.
Create job creates the role when details are ready and follows any required approval process.
An existing draft can show Publish job or Submit for approval.

Wait for save confirmation, then open Get More Applicants. Career-page and job-board publishing are enabled by default when a job is created. To disable these channels, turn off Enable job board publishing and Show on Career Page, then click Save & Finish. These controls do not disable the direct job link. Change the job status to Paused to stop public applications.

Finish setup

Review the offered sections: Benchmark Resume, Hiring Team, Job Application, Hiring Pipelines, Automation where available, Interview Scorecard, Job Approval, and Get More Applicants. Use Save & Continue or Save & Finish.

Troubleshooting

Validation: check location fields and at least one Required skill.
Dependent choices: choose Industry, then Employer Type and Job Function again.
Limit reached: ask an administrator to review Billing.
Pending Approval: complete sign-off.
