Create a job

Learn how to create a job in Recruitera — start from scratch, a template, a copy, or a requisition, then fill in the job editor.

Creating a job in Recruitera starts by choosing how you want to begin, then filling in a tabbed editor. The job is created as a draft right away, so nothing goes public until you publish it. Creating and editing jobs needs the manage-jobs permission.

Before you start

  • Required role: a role with the Manage jobs permission

  • Where to find it: Jobs → Add Job

How to create a job

  1. On the Jobs list, click + Add Job.

  2. In the Add a job dialog, choose where the job starts from: Start from scratch, Use a template, Copy an existing job, or From a requisition (if requisitions are enabled on your plan).

  3. The job is created as a Draft and opens in the job editor.

  4. Work through the editor's tabs — Job details, Application, Team, Workflow, Social Sharing, and Cross Posting. Each tab saves on its own, so you can leave and come back.

  5. When it's ready, publish the job by setting its status to Published (see How to Change Your Job's Status).

The Add a job dialog

💡 A job stays private while it's a draft — take your time filling in the tabs before publishing.

How the job editor is organized

The editor isn't a linear wizard — it's a set of tabs you can fill in any order and revisit. For what each tab does, see Explore the Job Editor.

Frequently asked questions

Do I have to finish a job in one go?

No. The job is saved as a draft the moment you create it, and each editor tab saves independently, so you can step away and return any time before publishing.

What does "From a requisition" do?

If your plan includes requisitions, you can start a job from an approved requisition so its details carry over. If you don't see this option, requisitions aren't enabled for your company.
