How to promote your job postings on the Swedish Public Employment Service

Activation steps

Start by heading over to the Marketplace in Teamtailor. Under the Channels section, select Arbetsförmedlingen and click Activate.

You will then be taken to the configuration page under Settings → Integrations → Marketplace activations → Arbetsförmedlingen. Here you will find two activation steps:

Consent key

Before activating this integration, you will need to register the consent key generated in the call-out on the configuration page in Teamtailor.

Log in to your account at Arbetsförmedlingen using this link and navigate to the Annonsera i Platsbanken section. Here, you click the button Hantera medgivanden, where you can enter the consent key.

Employer ID

When activating this integration in Teamtailor, you will need your Employer ID from Arbetsförmedlingen.

You can find it by logging into your account using this link and navigating to the Hantera organisation (Manage account) section. Your Employer ID is listed under the Organisationens kundnummer (Organization client number) field.

Once you have added the Employer ID, click Save, and you are ready to start promoting jobs to Arbetsförmedlingen.

If you are unable to locate your Employer ID, reach out to the support team at Arbetsförmedlingen here.

Promote a job to Arbetsförmedlingen

Once the activation has been completed, head over to the job in question and click the Promote tab.

Scroll down to the Activated job boards section and click on Arbetsförmedlingen.

Mandatory information

Fill out the information requested by Arbetsförmedlingen:

The Swedish Public Employment Service (Arbetsförmedlingen) requires a location with a full street address. Learn how to add locations in this article.

Occupation

When advertising a job on the Swedish Public Employment Service’s job board (Platsbanken), you must select the correct occupation. This ensures that your job ad is displayed in the right section on their site, making it easier for potential candidates to find it.

Use the search function in the field to find the relevant occupation.

Employment type

Choose whether the employment is on-demand, a summer/holiday job, or a regular position. For the last two options, you will also be able to fill in these fields:

  • Employment duration: Define the duration of the employment using the available options.

  • Working hours: Full-time or part-time.

Wage type

Specify the type of wage the job offers.
