Featured jobs are another way to monetize your Branded Job Board, and enable members to highlight jobs of their choice in candidate search results.
While with Sponsored Companies, an entire brand is highlighted on the home page, the Featured Jobs are valuable in ranking these jobs to the top of candidate search results as long as the search is relevant to the job marked as featured.
⭐ Benefits to members
Whenever a candidate searches for terms on the Branded Job Board, the relevant postings will appear with a default ranking that places relevant featured jobs on the top of the list. Candidates have the propensity to apply to featured jobs as they appear more significant during job searches.
Creating bundle templates
As an Admin, you can define a bundle template which is a set of featured postings that can be used by your members to boost the visibility of their postings. To define a new bundle template:
- Navigate to Settings > Bundles
- Click Create new bundle
- Specify the bundle name, number of features jobs, and the duration of when companies can start featuring their posts
- Click Create to save the new bundle
Now that your bundle template is created, it can be assigned to one or more members to enable them to promote selected jobs. A posting that becomes featured will be ranked higher in search results for 30 days, attracting more applicants.
Assigning bundles to a member company
To assign a bundle to a member company:
- Navigate to the company's account in your Admin panel
- Access the "Featured Jobs" tab
- Click Add bundle
- Select an existing bundle for assignment from the list or define a custom bundle if needed
- Select the start date of the bundle; you can set a future activation date
- Click Assign to complete the process
From the same page, you can also check if this company has already been assigned a bundle.
The Bundle End Date is calculated based on the duration you have set in the bundle template and marks the date on which the unused bundle credits will expire, and the member won’t be able to use them thereafter. Multiple bundles can be awarded to one member, and these will appear:
- On their Member panel to use (for companies without a Workable account)
- On their Workable account to use (for companies with a Workable account)
Once a bundle is assigned, an email is sent to the members informing them of the number of credits they have and the expiration date of the bundle.
