Navigating the Posting Page

Once a job has been created and saved, the posting page enables you to review in-depth information about the position. This resource will help you become familiar with the options and data available on the job posting page. 

Upon creating a new job in Handshake, the posting page will load after saving the job.

Alternatively, you can click directly on the name of your job posting from the Jobs page. For assistance with the Jobs page, refer to Navigating the Jobs Page. 

In the upper-right corner of the page, click the grey buttons Edit to access the full job editing mode or More Actions for a dropdown menu of quick actions: Duplicate job, Expire job, Preview job. 

There are five tabs that breakdown posting data: Overview, Details, Institutions, Matches, and Applicants. 

Note: the "Edit" and "More Actions" buttons remain available regardless of which tab you select!

Overview

The Overview tab provides aggregate posting performance data for Applicants, Job Views, and Reach, as well as helpful recommendations for improving posting performance.
