Overview

Job Postings are job openings that your members would like to advertise to other members and to the general public. Members may submit a job posting when logged in to the Member Information Center (MIC). As an association staff member, you may add a job posting on behalf of a member. If you choose, you can allow job submissions by anyone on your public website.

At the present time, updates to the zip and/or city on the Contact Information the job posting does NOT update the geo-coding.
      • Enable custom search options - This settings allows you to include additional criteria for job seekers to use when searching job postings.

Only the custom criteria that are associated with the active jobs will display as search options when job seekers are searching for a job.
