Claim required
You need to have claimed your company profile before you can post jobs. If you haven't done that yet, see How to Claim Your Company Profile.
Creating a job posting
Go to your dashboard
Sign in and navigate to your manage dashboard. Click the <strong>Jobs</strong> tab at the top.
Click "New Job Posting"
This opens the job creation form where you'll enter all the details about your opening.
Fill in the required details
Enter the job title, select a trade, choose the employment type and experience level, set the location (city, province/state, country), write a description, choose a compensation type, and set how candidates should apply.
Add optional details
You can also specify the sector, shift type, number of positions, compensation range, and whether benefits, lodging, or travel are provided. You can attach required certifications to help candidates self-qualify.
Set the application method
Choose how candidates should apply: by email, through an external URL, or by phone. This is what candidates see when they click "Apply".
Publish
Click "Save" to publish your posting. It will appear on your profile and the job board immediately. Postings are active for 60 days.
What to include in your posting
A strong job posting helps you attract the right candidates. Here's what we recommend:
- Clear job title: use industry-standard titles so candidates can find your posting (e.g., "Pipeline Welder" rather than "Team Member")
- Detailed description: describe the day-to-day work, project type, and what makes this role worth applying for
- Location and schedule: be specific about where the work is and what the rotation looks like (e.g., 14/7, 21/7, Monday to Friday)
- Compensation range: optional but highly recommended; postings with pay ranges get significantly more applications
- Requirements: list must-have certifications, tickets, and experience so candidates can self-qualify
Tip
Mention specific certifications like COR, ISN, or OSHA requirements upfront. You can also attach required certifications directly to the posting so they appear prominently.
Managing your postings
From the Jobs tab on your dashboard, each posting shows its status (Active, Closed, Expired, or Inactive) along with view and apply-click counts. You have the following actions available:
- Edit: update any details on a live posting, including the title, description, location, compensation, and application method. Available while the posting is active.
- Close: mark a posting as no longer available. You'll choose a reason: "Position filled", "Cancelled", or "Expired". Closed postings are removed from the job board but kept in your dashboard history.
- Reopen: bring a closed or expired posting back to the job board. The posting reappears with its original details and a fresh 60-day expiry, so there is no need to recreate it from scratch.
- Duplicate: create a copy of any posting (active or closed) with all the same details. Useful when you are hiring for the same role in a different location or want to repost a similar position quickly.
- Delete: permanently remove a posting from the system. You'll be asked to confirm before it is deleted. This cannot be undone.
- View: open the public job listing page in a new tab to see exactly what candidates see.
Close rather than delete
Closing a posting keeps your history intact and makes it easy to reopen or duplicate later. Only delete if you're sure you won't need it again.
Automatic expiry
Job postings expire automatically after 60 days. Expired postings are removed from the job board but remain in your dashboard. You can reopen them at any time to reset the expiry and put them back on the board.
Tips for better results
- Keep your company profile complete; candidates check your profile before applying
- Respond to applications quickly; the best candidates move fast
- Close filled positions promptly so you don't receive irrelevant applications
- Use Duplicate to quickly repost common roles instead of filling in the form from scratch
- Share your job posting link on LinkedIn or via email to reach a wider audience
