Overview

Hiring pages on a regular WordPress site tend to turn into a pile of manual edits. This plugin gives you a proper job board instead. Each job gets its own shareable page with a description, location, categories and custom taxonomies. Visitors can search and filter listings through shortcodes, and you manage everything from a familiar WordPress interface.

Employers can submit and maintain their own listings from the website through frontend forms, and a dedicated jobs dashboard page keeps them out of the admin area. Candidates can apply by email or through an external URL. Developers can work with its post types, endpoints and extendable templates, and paid add-ons cover extras such as resume management, job alerts and paid listings.

Features

  • Simple job listing management: Add, edit and manage job listings through an interface that needs no coding skills, so a hiring page can be kept current by anyone on your team.
  • Searchable and filterable boards: Visitors can find relevant jobs using customizable search and filter options, which you place on a page with simple shortcodes.
  • Frontend employer forms: Employers submit and maintain their own job listings from the website frontend, so they do not need admin access to post an opening.
  • Jobs dashboard for employers: A dedicated dashboard page lets employers manage their listings without being exposed to the backend admin areas of your site.
  • Individual job pages: Every job has its own shareable page with a detailed description, location, categories and custom taxonomies for richer content.
  • Flexible apply options: Candidates can apply through an email address or an external URL that you assign to each listing, giving them more than one way to respond.
  • Listing views and visits: Track job listing page views and unique visits to see how people engage with the jobs on your board.
  • Google job schema and RSS: Listings include Google job schema so search engines can index them, and customizable RSS feeds let you syndicate jobs to other platforms.

Best for

  • Businesses publishing their own openings on WordPress
  • Recruitment agencies building a job board
  • Community sites that let employers post jobs
