Pro-Tips / Best Practices
- When to Edit vs. Create New: If the core responsibilities or seniority of a role change significantly, it's best practice to close the existing job and create a new one. This ensures a fair and consistent process for all applicants.
- Keep Your Career Page Tidy: Promptly close jobs as soon as they are filled. This creates a better experience for job seekers and ensures your active listings are always accurate and relevant.
