Posting Descriptions for Job Requisitions

You can create posting descriptions in the Recruiting Content Library that recruiters can use when they create job requisitions.

Even though a job requisition's posting description is populated from the Recruiting Content Library, recruiters can override the description and personalize it, as needed.

A posting description contains a short description and a more detailed description. The short description appears on the career site job search results page, which lists the open jobs with the name, location, and brief description. When a candidate clicks on a job, it opens up the job requisition which shows the detailed description.

When you create a posting description, you can specify if the description is used for the internal career site, external career sites, or both. The internal short description is currently not used in the internal candidate experience, so its value is never displayed other than in the requisition.

You can also contextualize a posting description based on the recruiting type, organization, location, job family, job function. When a posting description is contextualized, only descriptions matching the context of the job requisition will be available for selection when a recruiter creates a job requisition.

When loading posting descriptions in the Recruiting Content Library using HDL, the HTML format must be used in order to define the formatting of the posting descriptions.
