Promote your vacancy
A guide to how to manage where your vacancy will be displayed
Once you are ready to publish the vacancy, you have a choice of the promotion options available to you. After all you want to get as many potential candidates exposed to your vacancy as possible.
Setting Promotion Dates
With Simplify you have full control of scheduling when and where you vacancy will be displayed. You can schedule a start and end date for both publishing internally on your employee and referral portal site and externally on you your public-facing career portal and selected vacancy advertising partners like free and paid job boards and social media sites.
You can enable or disable promoting your vacancies internally (on employee portal and referral portal) and externally on public-facing portals and select the dates that you would like your vacancy to be added or removed from these channels.
Tip for running vacancies until filled
If you would like to promote your vacancy until filled then do not add an end date. The vacancy will be displayed on your chosen portals until you close the vacancy.
NOTE: Some job boards will automatically remove your vacancy from their platforms once their standard advertising period ends.
The publish internal and publish external function work independently from each other. You will need to stipulate start and end dates for both options to control the publishing of your vacancy
Fast publishing
If you would like to publish the vacancy immediately until you manually close the vacancy, you can Fast Publish by not adding any dates. Simplify will automatically publish the vacancy internally and externally to the default publishing partners based on the system preferences set by your company administrator. You will be required to close the vacancy manually to remove from the various portals.
Company Portal
