How to Create a Job Advertisement in :Recruit Essentials<\/h2>\n

Welcome back to your :Recruit Essentials guides. Previously, we spoke about your :Recruit Essentials dashboard<\/a> and how easy it is to navigate within it. We also covered creating new job applications, reviewing tasks and how to navigate the system. By now, you should be able to create and view your vacancies and applications received. If you missed that step, please read Welcome to :Recruit Essentials<\/a> so you\u2019re all caught up before we get into how to create a job posting.<\/p>\n

Any successful recruitment campaign starts with a job ad. Within :Recruit Essentials, you can create jobs, and start posting your ads online. Note that as an :Recruit Essentials user, you\u2019re able to publish a maximum of 3 jobs at any one time, not including any campaigns that our Recruitment Marketing team is running for you, nor does this include the initial expression of interest job that we create for you during implementation.<\/p>\n

How to create jobs in :Recruit Essentials<\/h3>\n

There are two methods for creating a job in :Recruit Essentials. You can start from scratch by selecting the “New” button or you can duplicate an existing job or template. If you’re new to the platform, creating a job from scratch can help you become familiar with the fields and features of the tool. However, if you’re experienced with an Applicant Tracking System (ATS), cloning an existing job ad will save you time.
\nPlease be aware that cloned jobs automatically copy all the populated fields, but you can edit them as needed. Therefore, it’s important to carefully review everything before publishing the job, as some fields may not be relevant to this particular job ad. If you require assistance at any point, please don’t hesitate to contact your Account Executive for support.<\/p>\n

Step #1: To create a new job, go to the Jobs Overview page<\/strong>
\n\"Step<\/p>\n

Step #2: Click on the + sign, and you\u2019ll see options to either create a new job or clone an existing one. If you opt to clone a job,l you\u2019ll be prompted to select which one.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Step<\/p>\n

Alternatively, you can clone a job from within the individual job that you\u2019d like to replicate.<\/span><\/p>\n
