Enable Social Sharing

You can share more engaging content with social platforms when you post links to external career sites. Site-level configuration for Open Graph image is available to make content more shareable. You can add a URL for an image you want to use when posting jobs on social platforms.

Also, when posting jobs on Twitter, you can use a tag to decide how the image is rendered. When the image URL uses an Open Graph image and the job is shared on Twitter, the image is rendered as a large image. The card format value is hard-coded, you can’t configure it. The card format is: <meta name="twitter:card" value="summary_large_image">

When sharing career site pages with social platforms, the following Open Graph tags were added to the splash page and search results pages.

  • “<site name> Careers” is used as og:title (translated to a correct language)
  • branding text is used as og:description
  • image configured for a site is used as og:image (with fallback to site logo/desktop)
  • "website" is used as og:type
  • site name is used as og:site_name
  • If the page is shared to Twitter, the twitter card is rendered in summary_large_image format
  1. In the Setup and Maintenance work area, go to:

  2. On the Career Site Look and Feel Configuration page, select Edit next to a career site.

    For best experience when sharing job links in social media sites, most social platforms require aspect ratio of 1.9:1 for images. Make sure you verify the aspect ratio recommended by the platforms you use before uploading the image.
