| Criteria | Guideline | Rationale |
| ☐ 1) | Hyperlinks | Hyperlinks should not be used in job listings | We remove hyperlinks to enhance accuracy and improve job conversion rates. Fewer links help students stay focused and navigate smoothly within our platform. Our research shows that reducing links leads to better outcomes for both employers and job seekers. |
| ☐ 2) | Location description | The job location should be within the designated location section, not within the job title. | Keeping the location out of the title ensures consistency with standard naming conventions that job seekers are familiar with. The location will still be clearly visible under the job title, maintaining the necessary visibility while streamlining the listing. |
| ☐ 3) | Job titles | Job titles must be simple and reflect the actual position without additional details such as company names, pre-registration notices, or start dates. | This simplifies the presentation of job listings across our platform, ensuring consistency. Our system automatically appends relevant start dates, based on the details provided in the opportunity description. |
| ☐ 4) | Banner Images | Banner images should not feature logos or award badges from competitor sites. | This keeps the focus on your company and program, ensuring an equal platform for all employers and maintaining a consistent user experience. |
| ☐ 5) | Contact Details | Contact details should not be included in the job description. | Contact information can distract candidates from using the "Apply now" button, leading them away from the application process. This may reduce the likelihood of receiving applications. |
| ☐ 6) | Multiple Similar Jobs | Combine multiple similar job openings into a single post, especially if they only differ by location. | Consolidating job listings improves visibility and prevents internal competition between your postings. Candidates will be able to see all vacancies in one listing and choose the location they are interested in. |
| ☐ 7) | Salary Range | Provide the appropriate salary range using the correct units (annual, monthly, weekly, daily, or hourly). | Our platform supports flexible salary range options. Ensure that the salary matches the intended pay rate format. |
| ☐ 8) | Re-using expired job postings | Expired job postings should not be reused for recurring positions. Instead, create a duplicate job posting. | Through testing, we've confirmed this approach ensures each cohort in a recurring job series gets a distinct job listing, offering clearer organization for you and the students to navigate job opportunities more easily. |
