On Connectr, you have the opportunity to showcase your organisation’s open roles directly to a highly engaged pool of diverse candidates. Posting jobs isn’t just about filling vacancies, it’s about building your employer brand, nurturing early talent, and helping candidates see a clear pathway into your organisation. Read our tips and suggestions below to start making the most of your job listings and creating meaningful connections with future talent.
📌 In this article, we use the label 'Jobs,' but your platform may use something else. We often see 'Opportunities' used as an alternative.
Types of jobs
You can choose to post any job your organisation is offering, including placements, internships, apprenticeships, fixed-term contracts, and paid positions. Sharing a variety of roles helps showcase the breadth of pathways available and ensures you’re reaching candidates at different stages of their career journey.
How to post a job
Whilst it's not possible to advertise a role yourself, your Customer Success Manager (CSM) can get this set up for you. Kindly request your CSM to provide you a 'job creation form' to fill out and send back to us. This ensures we have all the necessary information to publish a job listing online.
If you're unable to complete the form, please let your CSM know as much detail about the opportunity as possible.
💡 Ask your CSM about also sending out a promotional ad-hoc email to your desired audience to drive traffic to the site.
How a job listing appears on the platform
Once posted online, your job sits within the 'jobs' tab on your account. Although this label may be different depending on what name you've chosen for your platform.
Filter option - applicants can filter by job location, salary and contract type (providing information provided in the job listings).
Selecting the 'Apply' or 'Learn more' button will take applicants to an external site URL (this will have been set up by the CSM from the information you will have provided) where they can apply for the position.
Important info is displayed in the top left, such as the opportunity title, department name, posted and closing date, location (you can choose to advertise multiple locations), contract type and salary.
A randomly selected task from a featured module is surfaced to users to help set themselves up for success before applying. This is optional. See here for more details.
You also have the option to showcase a mentor who can answer candidate questions or share insights about the position. Read more details on setting this up here.
Boost engagement
To boost engagement with your jobs, consider pairing each role with a selected mentor and turning on a featured learning module. Below are more details on how to set these up.
Featured modules
Tasks from featured modules will automatically display on empty job pages, which helps maintain their interest in your organisation and encourages them to return when roles do become available. The same tasks will also automatically display on published job listings, helping candidates actively explore relevant content. This combination can increase confidence and interest and also helps applicants feel better prepared.
To set this up, find the module in 'Content Builder' in your admin dashboard. Select 'edit Module details' and expand the section titled 'Advanced Options' at the bottom of the page. The toggle for this setting will appear under the option 'Display Tasks from this Module on job listings?'. Please select 'Update' to ensure it saves. The screenshot below displays the setup page where you can find this option. If you have any difficulty, please contact your CSM.
Considerations:
You can't assign a featured module to specific job listings, as assignment is done randomly.
We recommend choosing a generic, job-related module - for example, one about company culture or application tips.
If a task is linked to an event or has profile field restrictions, it won't be used on the jobs page.
If the module has role restrictions (mentee or mentor), only the users with those roles will see the tasks from this module on the jobs page.
Assign a mentor
This helps applicants feel more supported and confident, especially those who may be new to your industry or unsure about the application process. It also creates a more personal connection to your brand and encourages deeper engagement. To get this set up, please ensure you have added this to the job creation form or let your CSM know.
Tips for success
Use inclusive language in your descriptions.
Keep job posts up to date and remove expired roles (please get in touch with your CSM to remove or edit a role).
Link roles to relevant mentors to boost engagement.
