How to Add Job Tags in Recruitera

Learn how to add job tags in Recruitera's workflow settings — create a shared tag library to categorize, filter, and organize job posts across your workspace.

Recruitera's job tag settings let Admins create tags specifically for labeling and organizing job posts — separate from candidate tags. Job tags help your team categorize openings by priority, hiring type, campaign, or any custom criteria your organization uses. This is an Admin-only action in Recruitera.

Before you start

How job tags work across Recruitera

Recruitera allows recruiters to apply job tags when creating or editing a job post. Once applied, tags appear on the job card in the Jobs list view and can be used as a filter — making it easy to surface all jobs with a specific tag. Job tags are workspace-wide, so every tag you create here is available to all recruiters on your team.

💡 Job tags and candidate tags are managed separately in Recruitera — tags created under Job Tags only appear on jobs, and tags under Candidate Tags only appear on candidates.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between job tags and candidate tags in Recruitera?

Recruitera maintains two separate tag libraries — Job Tags and Candidate Tags — managed independently in Settings → Workflow. Job Tags are applied to job posts to categorize and filter your openings. Candidate Tags are applied to individual candidates to label and filter people across your pipeline. Tags from one library do not appear in the other, keeping your jobs and candidates organized independently.

How do I tag a job post in Recruitera?

To tag a job post in Recruitera, open the job's settings or creation form and look for the Tags field. Click it to select from the Job Tags configured in Settings → Workflow → Job Tags. You can apply multiple tags to a single job. Once applied, tags appear on the job card in the Jobs list and can be used as a filter to quickly surface jobs by category, priority, or campaign type.

Can recruiters create job tags in Recruitera?

Recruitera restricts job tag creation to Admin users only. Recruiters can apply existing job tags to job posts during job creation or editing, but they cannot create new tags or delete existing ones from Settings. If a recruiter needs a new job tag, they should ask an Admin to add it from Settings → Workflow → Job Tags.
