Creating a content template for your job ads will allow you to present different content for different kinds of ads. As an example, you’ll be able to make sure that you always use the same job page content for all the jobs published in a specific department, in a specific location, or even by a specific recruiter.

Create or edit a job ad template

Head over to your Career site editor and scroll down to the bottom in the left side bar until you see the section called Job ad templates. This is where you can create and edit your job page templates. Here you will find two standard templates to choose from (Visual & Plain) or create your own from scratch.

In the job ad template, you decide which blocks you want to use for job ads using this template. This gives you the possibility to design your own job ads by deciding which type of blocks you want to display.

The blocks with the dashed frames will be automatically populated with content from the specific job, and this is information you cannot edit on the template level. Besides that, the content block library is at your disposal!

Add new blocks by clicking the plus sign at the bottom left, remove the blocks you don’t want to use, and make sure to customize the content so that it suits the audience you have in mind.

As an example, if you create a job page template for your Customer Support department, why not include department-specific content as the perks of this department, or use an Infographic block with some interesting stats on the team?

At any point, you can select one of your jobs to see how that job would look using this specific template. In the example in the screenshot below, you see the template applied to the job called Content Creator (this means all the dashed content blocks will now contain information from that job).

Job ad template settings

You will always have a default job ad template, which is the one that will be used if nothing else is selected. You’re able to change which template to use as the default one by hovering over a template, clicking the three dots and choosing Mark as default template.

Here you will also be able to duplicate the template, as well as delete a template (you’re not able to delete templates that have been used).

Use a job ad template

All the added templates will be available to choose from when creating a job. Under Job posting → Appearance section, you will find them in the Job ad template drop-down.
