You can duplicate a job posting to quickly create a new version that carries over all the original job details and settings. The duplicate does not carry over previous applicants or school approvals.
Who can duplicate a job posting
Your ability to duplicate a job depends on your employer account type and whether you created the original posting.
- Basic employers: Owners and Recruiters can only duplicate jobs they personally created. Jobs posted by teammates appear as view-only and cannot be duplicated. To duplicate jobs you did not create, upgrade to an eligible paid plan.
- On-campus employers, Pro, Essentials, and TES customers: All users except Representatives can duplicate any job posting, including those created by teammates, provided they have the appropriate permissions.
To learn how to close an existing job instead, refer to Close a Job Posting.
When a job can be duplicated
A job can be duplicated under any of the following conditions:
- The job is closed.
- The job is open, its opening date is within the past year, and its closing date is more than a year after the opening date.
- The job is open, its opening date is more than a year ago, and its closing date is more than a year after the opening date.
Duplicate a job posting
1. Click Jobs from the left navigation bar.
2. Locate the job posting you want to duplicate and click the three-dot menu icon at the end of the job posting row.
You can also open the job posting page and click the three-dot menu icon in the upper-right corner, then select Duplicate job.
Tip: Use the Status or Division filter to find jobs faster by posting status or team.
Note: If the original job was linked to an interview schedule, that link is not preserved on the duplicate. To link an interview schedule to the new job, request a new schedule.
3. Select Duplicate from the dropdown menu.
4. Review the job form. All original job details are pre-filled, but Handshake recommends reviewing every section before posting, including:
- Job title: Update the title so it's not confused with the original posting.
- Schools: Add only the schools you want this posting sent to.
- Application open and close dates: Review and update the default dates as needed.
5. Click Post job in the lower-right corner of the page when you're ready to submit.
6. Your posting is sent to the selected schools for review. For more on approval timing and status, refer to Understanding Job Posting Approvals.
Applicant eligibility for a duplicated job posting
A duplicated job posting is treated as a new job posting, so all eligible students can apply, including students who applied to the original posting.
To exclude previous applicants, adjust the qualifications or select different schools for the new posting.
