Refine your job postings beyond the initial creation phase to keep them relevant and attractive to job seekers.
Smart Suggestions help you optimize your job postings after creation by providing relevant, lifecycle-based suggestions. Designed to give you tailored recommendations, Smart Suggestions can help make your job postings as attractive as possible to job seekers and guide you to follow best practices. Smart Suggestions can be found in two areas of your account: when editing a job posting and, now, on your Jobs page.
What do we Suggest?
All of the Smart Suggestions follow our effective job posting criteria including but not limited to including a salary, desired experience, and benefits. The Suggestions shown to the side of your job postings are some of the same Suggestions shown when editing your job. Additionally, our Suggestions are built from job board best practices and data-driven insights!
Did you know job descriptions with fewer than 4,000 characters receive 30% more applicants?
When Smart Suggestions show up
All of our Smart Suggestions are tailored to the 90-day lifecycle of your job. As your job posting ages, we'll change our Suggestions to help you stimulate applicant interest. As you make edits to your posting, we'll update our Suggestions. This means Suggestions in the first two weeks can be different from the next two weeks. If there are multiple Suggestions, you will be able to scroll through to see what we Suggest.
When your job posting approaches the end of it's 90-day lifecycle, we'll ask "Are you still hiring?" You'll then be prompted to either Close the job posting if you've made your hire or keep it open.
We'll also acknowledge when your job post follows all of our given Suggestions and let you know we don't have any more for the moment. If you have no Smart Suggestions and would like tips on optimizing your job posting, schedule time with a CareerPlug Consultant!
