Career Site Page Types and Layout
You can use different types of pages when you create an external career site and you can configure these pages by defining their layout, background, and elements.
The following types of career site pages are available:
- Splash Page: This is the page that candidates first see on the career site. This is often the central panel of the career site.
- Search Results Page: These are the pages that display when candidates perform a search or select a link that displays a list of current jobs.
- Job Details Page: These are the pages that display when candidate select a job from the search results to view more details. This page is the entry to the application process through the Apply Now action.
- Custom Page: These pages are primarily used to provide greater detail about the company, organization, culture, or any other information that provides a rich candidate experience.
Pages are based on the design principle of the design grid. Pages are created using sections, rows, columns, and elements. Pages can have several sections, sections can have several rows, and columns can have several elements.
When you add a section to a page, you can add predefined column layouts using the Actions menu located on the left side of the section. When you're creating your column layouts, note that if you go from a 5-column layout for example, to a 3 column layout, columns and design elements within them will get deleted. Using the Actions menu on the right side, you can add a background color, image, or a video to a section. For videos, enter a YouTube URL or a URL to a mp4 file. Using the Elements menu, you can add and format elements such as headline, paragraph, image, and so on.
Pages can have different common elements, and these elements can be configured.

HTML | The HTML element puts pure HTML on the page that can be styled via the Custom CSS area of the Theme tab. This is to account for situations where the native element doesn't meet the desired need. |
