Create a job
1
Start the job
Open Jobs and select New job. Enter the title, department,
location, and employment type. Save early — a job starts as a draft and is
not public until you publish it.
2
Write the description
Add the role summary, responsibilities, and requirements. This is the text
candidates read on the career page, so keep it
accurate and free of internal notes.
3
Choose the pipeline
Assign the stages the applications will move through. A practical default is
Applied, Screen, Interview, Offer, and Hired, with a separate
rejected or withdrawn outcome. Set the stages with Edit stages (see
Customize your pipeline).
A stage’s outcome comes from its kind (hired, rejected, withdrawn, or
custom), not its name, so renaming a stage never changes what happens to
applications in it. A stage that already holds applications is archived
rather than deleted: its applications move to another stage with the same
outcome, and its history is kept.4
Build the application form
Decide which fields and screening questions candidates answer. Ask only for
what you need at the apply step; you can request documents later through
document requests.
5
Assign the hiring team
Add the hiring manager, recruiters, and interviewers. Access follows their
role: a member scoped to
assigned jobs only
sees the requisitions they are on.6
Publish
Review the public preview, then publish. The job appears on your career page
and accepts applications immediately.
Customize your pipeline
Select Edit stages on the pipeline page, or on the job itself, to change a job’s stages. The editor lists the active stages in board order, with the outcomes (hired, rejected, withdrawn) below them.- Add a stage. It goes before the outcomes unless you choose another position.
- Rename, recolor, or change a stage’s kind. The kind decides what happens to candidates in the stage; the name is only a label. A stage that holds candidates cannot become an outcome or stop being one. Archive it and merge its candidates into a stage of the same kind instead.
- Reorder the active stages with the drag handle or the arrow buttons. Outcomes stay last.
- Archive a stage. If it holds candidates, choose where they move. Their status does not change and their history is kept. Archived stages cannot be restored from the editor.
- Delete a stage only if no candidate has ever been in it. Otherwise, archive it.
Job states
Closing a job does not reject its open applications. Decide each outcome on the
pipeline so candidates receive the right
communication.
Editing a published job
You can edit a published job’s description and team without unpublishing it. Changing the pipeline of a job that already has applications moves those applications onto the new stages — review the mapping before you save so no application lands in an unexpected place.Next steps
