In HRSimplified, job postings are created and managed within the Recruitment Module. These postings can be based on pre-configured job titles from the HR Capacity Planner, and each posting can be customized with additional details and SEO elements for external sharing. This guide will walk you through how to create and manage job postings for active and future vacancies.

Steps to Create a Job Posting: #

1. Navigate to the Recruitment Module #

  • Log in to HRSimplified and go to the Recruitment Module from the main menu.
  • Select Job Postings to access the list of existing job postings (both active and inactive).

2. Create a New Job Posting #

  • At the top-right corner, click on Create New Job Posting.
  • A form will appear with fields to populate the job posting details.

3. Select a Job Title #

  • The first field will allow you to select a job title from the dropdown list. This list is populated with job titles set up in the HR Capacity Planner.
    • Once a job title is selected, the system will automatically pull in details like the job description, department, and required skills.

4. Complete Additional Fields #

  • Fill in any additional fields required for the job posting, such as:
    • Job Location
    • Hiring Manager
    • Salary Range (optional)
    • Contract Type (e.g., full-time, part-time, contract)

5. Save the Job Posting #

  • Once all required fields are completed, click Save to create the job posting. It will now appear on your Job Postings list as an active or draft posting, depending on its status.

Managing Job Postings: #

1. Edit or Reuse Job Postings #

  • From the Job Postings list, you can view both active and inactive jobs.
  • To edit an existing job posting, click the Edit button next to the job title. This allows you to modify job details, update the description, or make the job inactive.
  • Reusing templates: If you’ve posted a similar job in the past, you can clone or reuse an old job posting, adjust the details, and publish it as a new vacancy.

2. Manage SEO and External Links #

  • To improve visibility of your job posting, click Edit on the job listing and navigate to the Job Posting URLs tab.
  • Here, you can:
    • Add SEO Keywords and a Short Preview Description for the job posting. This ensures the job posting is optimized for search engines and can rank higher when shared on external platforms.
    • Generate and copy the external job URL for sharing on platforms like LinkedIn, Facebook, or via direct links in emails. Each job posting has a unique external page where candidates can view the job description and apply.

Sharing Job Postings Externally: #

1. Share the Job Posting #

  • Once the job posting is created, the Job Posting URLs tab provides you with the external link to share.
    • Facebook/LinkedIn: Copy the external link and paste it into your company’s social media platforms for visibility.
    • Direct Links: Share the job link in email campaigns or job boards.
  • Candidates can click the link to view the job description and apply directly through the external page.

2. Managing Job Visibility #

  • You can manage the visibility of job postings by toggling them Active or Inactive. Active postings will be viewable to external candidates, while inactive ones will be saved as drafts or paused for future use.

Important Notes: #

  • Job Posting Consistency: Using pre-configured job titles from the HR Capacity Planner ensures that job postings are consistent across the organization.
  • SEO Optimization: Make sure you add relevant keywords and preview descriptions to each job posting to improve search visibility on platforms like Google, LinkedIn, or Facebook.
