Creating a Job Opening
Note: Before digging deep into the creation process let's keep in mind that any requisition which was created and approved can also become a Job Opening.
To create a Job Opening follow these quick steps:

- Job Opening title (publicly visible)
- Opening date
- Recruitment Pipeline: you will need to pick a pipeline that has been created in advance
- Auto-linking of Applicants: Turn on the switcher to automatically link applicants to the relevant job opening they applied for
- If an applicant's email address matches an existing candidate in the system, and that candidate is already assigned to the same active job opening, the applicant will not be automatically linked
- Position: select the position the hiring process should start from. Make sure the Position is created in advance in the Settings → Company Structure → Positions

- Department
- Contract Type: Permanent or Temporary

Important:
- If you wish to make the newly created Job Opening accessible from your company's Public page then hurry up to activate the Post in Public Page switcher in the Public Settings section.
- Enable the Send Notification switcher to send push notifications to your current employees who have the Raiser app installed on their devices to notify them about new vacancies for a potential referral.
- Enable Notify Applicant(s) to send an email notification directly to any external applicants who have already applied for the job opening.
- Choose the specific information you want to display on the public job opening page from the Public JO Fields dropdown list. This can include details like opening date, closing date, and position title.
Contract type, Employment type, and Location are already included by default and the Job Opening Description, Opening Date and Closing Date options are pre-selected.
- Link a specific application form to this job opening. When applicants view the job description, they will see the linked form and be able to apply directly. Choose the form from the Linked Application Form dropdown list.
