Manage Multiple Career Sites

When your oganization has several external career sites, there are tools you can use to manage them.

Reorder Career Sites

Career sites have a sequence number based on their position on the Career Sites Configuration page. First site on the page has sequence number 1, second site has sequence number 2, and so on. If you want to change the sequence of career sites, simply drag and drop them on the Career Sites Configuration page. Career site's sequence is important when candidates are redirected to the site from the link.

Let's say a job is posted on multiple external career sites. When external candidates are invited to apply for a job, are referred, or are added to a job requisition by a recruiter, they're redirected to the career site where the job is posted and that's the top sequence (highest) on the page.

Duplicate a Career Site

You can use the Duplicate action on the Career Sites Configuration page to duplicate an existing career site. A new career site is created and the configuration is the same as the original career site. The duplicated career site has the same name and code as the original site. You can modify them by clicking the Edit option. The duplicate career site has a unique URL.

Replace a Career Site

You can use the Replace action on the Career Sites Configuration page to replace an existing career site. The new career site can be accessed with the same URL as the original site. All functional and visual setup is copied from the other site.

The duplicate and replace options are useful when you want to make more extensive changes to your career site setup. As an example, changing the branding. You can duplicate a career site and make all the necessary changes on the duplicate. When the carer site is ready, you can replace the original site with the duplicate one. This way all the setup will be copied from the duplicate, while the url of the site will remain unchanged. Your candidates will reach the new enhanced career site using the same links as before.

Contextualize a Career Site

If you publish multiple career sites, you may want to contextualize them. Contextualization is done in the career site General tab.

You can contextualize a career site base on locations, organizations, job categories, job functions, and recruiting types.

When a career is contextualized, only posted job requisitions matching the same context criteria are visible on the career site. If no context is defined, all posted job requisitions are visible on the site. Here's an example.

You create 3 career sites in the following sequence:

  • Career Site 1: US jobs only

  • Career Site 2: EMEA jobs only

  • Career Site 3: No context

Scenario 1: Candidates receive a URL to a job requisition details page. The URL can be copied manually from a career site. The URL includes site information pointing to Career Site 2. The job location is EMEA. Candidates are taken to a job details page on Career Site 2. If the site is deactivated, candidates are taken to a highest sequence site where this requisition is available, that is Career Site 3.

Scenario 2: Candidates receive a URL to a job requisition details page. It could be a referral or prospect URL. The URL doesn't include site information, job location is Germany. Candidates are taken to a highest sequence site where the requisition is available, that is Career Site 2.

Import and Export Career Sites

You can use the Export and Import action on the Career Sites Configuration page to export all career sites configuration from a particular environment. All active and nonactive career sites are included in the export. The exported file includes site settings, visual and functional configuration. The file can be imported to any environment. Imported career sites are added on top of existing sites in the given environment and are inactive upon import. The site code must be unique on the environment. When a career site is imported, the original site code is amended by adding (Copy_1). If (Copy_1) already exists, the number is augmented (example: Copy_2, Copy_3).

Note: You can only export and import candidate experience sites within the same version of the application.
