| 1. What is the difference between a nationwide job posting and a standard job posting? |
Whether you purchase a nationwide job posting or a standard job posting, it will be distributed across our network of more than 15,000 web sites.
The job posting will appear in any relevant searches performed by candidates across our network of sites.
Nationwide job postings appear in searches where candidates select industry categories and keywords that match those identified in your job
description, regardless of the geographic location the candidate specifies. Nationwide job postings are ideally suited for companies offering the
same position in multiple locations, work-at-home positions, or other positions offered on a national scale.
Standard job postings appear in searches where candidates select industry categories, keywords AND geographic locations that match those identified
in your job description. Standard job postings are ideal for companies recruiting for positions in a single geographic location.
|
| 2. What is a job posting slot? |
|
A job posting slot allows you to post and take down a job as often as you need within a given time period. For example,
if you purchase one job posting slot for a term of 90 days, you can post your job description and when that position is filled, you can post a
new position. You can do this as many times as you like before the 90 day term is over.
|
| 3. If I purchased a job posting slot, how do I post a new position once my original posting has been filled? |
|
If you would like to replace your original job posting slot with a new posting, first you will need to click My Job Postings. You will need to
deactivate your original posting by clicking on the deactivate icon. Once your job posting slot is inactive, you can post a new posting. To post
your new position, click on Post a Job and enter the criteria for your posting. Make sure to check the box to have your posting distributed across the
network on the second page of the job posting process.
|
| 4. How do I edit my job posting? |
|
To edit any of your job postings, first log in to your account and click on My Job Postings. Locate the job you would like to edit and then click
on the Edit Job icon. This will bring you to your job posting and you can now edit your job posting information. Once you have completed editing
your information, click on Save and Continue. You will then be brought to the Job Distribution Options page where you can chose if you would like
to change your Site Distribution, Applicant Submissions and Applicant Filter. Whether or not you wanted to change any of your Job Distribution
Options, you must click on Save Job Distribution Options. Now all of your changes will be saved to your job posting.
|
| 5. Can I edit all of the fields in my job posting? |
|
When you are editing your job posting, you will notice that you cannot change the location or title of your job posting. These two fields are not
available for editing once you have posted your job descriptions. Please contact employer@beyond.com for more information regarding this policy.
|
| 6. Will my email address be seen by applicants when they are viewing my posting? |
|
When applicants apply to your position, they are not able to view any of the contact information or the email address on your account or job posting.
Applicants are directed to click on a link to apply to your posting. Once they do this, all of their contact information and resume are sent directly
to your email address. It is then up to you to contact any candidates that you are interested in.
|
| 7. How can I filter my applicants? |
You can filter your applicants when you are posting a job. When you log in to your account and click Post a Job, you will enter your job posting
information. When you are finished entering your job information, click on Save and Continue. This will bring you to the Job Distribution Options
Page.
The first option is to filter your applicants. You have the option to choose to receive all applicants, applicants from this country or applicants
from the United States or Canada. You can also filter your applicants if you already have jobs posted on your account. To filter applicants to
existing job postings, click on My Job Postings then the Edit Job icon. If you do not wish to edit any of your job posting information at this time,
click Save and Continue. You will be sent to the Job Distribution Options page, where you can choose how you would like to filter your applicants.
|
| 8. How long does it take for jobs I post to become live on the site? |
|
Once you are finished posting your job, your posting will be sent to us for approval. Please remember that no contact information should be included in
the body of the jobs that are posted to the site. If you adhere to this stipulation, your posting will be live more quickly. After we approve your
job posting, it will be live on the site. The entire approval process usually takes between 30 minutes to an hour. If you do not see your posting
live on the site within an hour, please contact us and we will check on the status of your posting.
|
| 9. How do I refresh my job posting? Does the date change? How does it affect the search? |
|
To refresh your job posting, click on My Job Postings then chose the Edit Job icon. You will need to change at least one item in your job posting
in order for it to be refreshed. Once the edit(s) is complete, click on Save and Continue. When you click on My Job Postings from your Recruiting
Desktop, the date of your job posting will now reflect the last date that you refreshed and modified your job posting. When candidates conduct a
job search, your refreshed job posting will show at the top of the search results and will reflect the date of your last edit.
|
| 10. How do I remove a job posting from your site? |
|
If you would like to remove your job posting, you will need to login to your account and click on My Job Postings. Then choose which posting you would
like to deactivate. You will need to click on the deactivate icon on the left hand side. There is an icon legend on the bottom right side of the page. Once you deactivate your job posting, it will no longer be live on the site. If your job posting has reached its 60 day term, then your job posting will automatically become inactive.
|
| 11. How do I receive emails notifying me of new resumes that match my job? |
In order to receive emails of matching candidates, you will need to set up an alert. You can set up an alert when posting a job. To create an alert
while posting a new job you will need to click Post a Job on your Recruiting Desktop. After you enter the job description, you will see a section for
keywords. Add in keywords that are related to your job description that you believe job seekers will search for. You will see an option to add an alert. Check the Yes box which will allow you to receive matching candidates' resumes.
Another way to receive matching candidate resumes is by setting an alert when searching for resumes. After you login to your account, click on
Search Resumes. Enter your search criterion that matches the type of candidates you are searching for. Towards the bottom of the form is an option to
add an alert. Check the Yes box if you would like to receive new candidates' resumes that match your search criteria.
|
| 12. Why is some resume information hidden from view? |
There are two possible reasons why some of a candidate's resume information is hidden from view. One reason is that you have not purchased resume
searching. You have the option of purchasing a single resume view or a resuming viewing package. If you have already purchased resume viewing
and are still unable to view entire resume information, you may not be accessing the correct link to view the resume.
When searching for resumes, there will be a link that says View Resume for each candidate on the resume search results page. When you click on
View Resume, you may still see grayed out information. In this case, there will be a box at the upper left-hand side of the page and at the
bottom of the box is a link that says View Complete Resume. Once you click on this link, you will be able to view all of the candidate's resume
information.
|
| 13. What constitutes a resume view? |
|
We offer free blinded resume searching to all employers and recruiters. You can view as many blinded resumes as you like, but some of the
information will be hidden from view. Offering free blinded resume searching allows corporations to pick and choose which resumes they would
like to completely view therefore they will not purchase or use an allotted resume view that will not be of any use to them. When you purchase
a single resume or a resume viewing package, you are able to view the complete resume. Whether you have one resume or 1,500 resume views allotted
to you, a resume view will be deducted from your allotted resume view count whenever you click the View Complete Resume link.
|
| 14. How long are my resumes saved? |
|
When performing a resume search, you have the option to save a candidate's resume. On your Recruiting Desktop, there is a Saved Resumes link so
you can easily access the resumes you saved. Any resumes that are saved will not be removed from your account unless a job seeker deactivates
their resume. There is also a Recently Viewed Resume link where you can find resumes that you recently viewed but did not save. This will
display the last 100 resumes that were viewed.
|
| 15. How do I delete applicant resumes from my Recruiting Desktop? |
|
You have the ability to delete any unwanted resumes that do not meet your hiring needs. After you login to your account, click on
My Applicants from your Recruiting Desktop. From the Job Posting drop down menu, choose which position you want to see your
applicants and then click the Show Applicants box on the right. You must choose one position, instead of choosing Show All
Applicants, in order to utilize this feature. You will see that the last column on the right is for the status of your candidates.
The default status is shown as Pending. Once you decide which candidates do not fit your hiring needs,
change the status from Pending to Not Selected. Please be aware that once you change the status to Not Selected,
this will delete the candidate's information and you will not be able to retrieve it again
