Publishing a paid job advertisement on Seek requires a bit more information than the standard job publishing feeds discussed in the previous article.
To publish an advertisement on Seek, the following criteria need to be met:
- Seek Job Publishing has been enabled in your LiveHire Talent Community
- You have purchased posting credits with Seek
- The Job Vacancy has been Created, Approved and Opened.
If the above criteria have been met, you can begin the Seek publishing process. The steps for completing this process are:
- Navigate to the Job Vacancies Dashboard.
- Select the Job that you would like to post from your Active Jobs bucket.
- Click the Publish button.
- Under the Paid Job Listings heading, click the Post button for Seek
- Complete the details in the first section for the Seek Advertisement. All non-mandatory fields are indicated as ‘(Optional)’.
- Once you have completed all required fields in the first section, you will be presented with the available Ad types. The available Ad Types will differ based on the location selected, as they are based on the country to which the job will be posted. You will also see the pricing associated with each ad type within the selection. Selecting an Ad Type, will then allow you to progress with publishing the job.
- If the Ad Type you selected includes Key Selling Points or a Logo and Cover Image, you will also be able to enter or select these from within the job publishing modal. The Brand Selection element will allow you to select the logo and imagery you wish to use when publishing your job. If you have more than 3 brand configurations available for your account, you can use the Left and Right arrows to the right of the displayed branding options to cycle through the options available to you.
- Finally, you will find a Recruiter Details section, which will already be pre-filled with the job and recruiter details. If you need to update these details, that can be done here. Once you have completed all required fields, you can click the Preview button to view a preview of the job ad on the SEEK platform. Otherwise, click the Post button (or Save to save your advertisement as a Draft).
Notes:
- Some of the SEEK publishing details fields can also pre-fill with content from details in the Job Vacancy. These include; Job Title, Work Type, Currency, Salary Type, Salary values, YouTube URL, Key Selling Points and Recruiter Details.
- SEEK jobs can be published for a maximum of 30 days. This is a restriction on the SEEK side. We have added validation to the start and end date selection for posting to SEEK to prevent a user from selecting an end date that is greater than 30 days from the selected start date. If an end date less than 30 days after the start date is selected, the job post will automatically be unpublished from SEEK when this date passes.
- As SEEK job posts are paid posts, additional care should be given to posting / unposting jobs. The posted SEEK job can be updated without unposting by updating the Job Vacancy details, as per the Free Job Listings, or accessing the SEEK publishing details for a posted job, updating the required details, and selecting to Save the update. If a SEEK post is unposted and then reposted, the client will be charged for a new job post.
- Once a SEEK job is posted, some details cannot be updated. These include; Post Dates, Listing Type (when posted as a Standout Listing) and Logo.
