Recruitera's public links feature lets Admins and Recruiters generate shareable URLs for specific job posts that can be distributed through any channel — email, WhatsApp, social media, or a QR code. Public links are tracked separately from your career page, so you can measure exactly how many candidates came from each distribution channel. Available to Admins and Recruiters in Recruitera.

How public links work in Recruitera
Recruitera supports creating multiple public links for the same job — one for each channel you are using. This gives you channel-level attribution without needing separate job posts. When a candidate applies through a public link, Recruitera automatically tags their application with the link's source, so your Candidates Report shows exactly which distribution channel they came from.
