Setting Indeed jobs on your job board

The set-up form contains the below fields:

  1. Country - Indeed.com supports jobs posts from many countries. Select from the drop-down button which country you wish the jobs to be coming from.
  2. Location - Provide a city or state to limit your job search to a more specific region
  3. Job Title - Enter a keyword or a job title for your search
  4. Within (days) - Specify whether you want to search jobs that were posted today, or within last 10 days or older.
  5. Set logo for job list ­– Insert the logo URL to make your settings more specific.

     6.  Select from the drop-down button to map Indeed’s job type with your site’s job type.

After filling these fields, click Save to complete your settings.

How do Indeed’s Jobs appear on your site?

The jobs that meet your search criteria will automatically appear on your site. They will appeal right after the original jobs posted on your web.

Different from the previous version, you could import jobs from Indeed to your site. With the latest one, users can search the jobs from Indeed in your site. If they feel interested in a job, they can click on it and then the system will redirect them to Indeed page.

Manage imported jobs

Note: This field is only applied for the old version. If you’ve already updated your JE Indeed, you don’t have to use this function.

JE Indeed also allows a site administrator to manage all imported jobs. Go to JE Indeed > Manage to see the complete list of your imported jobs. You can opt to label them “Job by indeed” or display them as normal jobs. You can also choose to keep the jobs on your site for a period of time or delete them anytime. There are two ways you can remove the jobs – manually or automatically.
 
To manually delete the jobs, tick the box on the left of those you wish to remove. Should you want to delete all jobs at once, check the box beside Title. Hit Delete selected jobs to complete the action.
 
To automatically delete jobs, enter a number for “Automatically delete imported jobs older than ___ days.” Press Delete Now if you need to remove those old jobs outright.


In the front - end, the jobs imported from Indeed will be displayed below the original jobs
