Question
How do I change the listing status of a job within JobX?
Answer
You can list or de-list a job position in JobX by following the steps below.
Select the right status: “Active, listed,” and “Active, not listed,” or “Inactive.”
- Positions must have an active status in order to hire students.
- Active, listed status refers to positions that have been approved and that are active and listed on JobX. Students will be able to see and apply for these positions. Choose this status if you are currently hiring and wish to accept applications via JobX.
- Active, not listed status refers to positions that have been approved and are active but are not listed in JobX. Students will not be able to see these positions. Choose this status when you wish to hire a student without posting the job, such as when hiring based on faculty recommendations, knowing who you want to hire, or needing to edit the job application or description after listing the position. You can change the status back to Active, Listed after making your edits.
- Inactive status refers to positions that were previously approved but are no longer open. Choose this status when you no longer wish to hire students into a position at the current time, but you do want to open that position back up sometime in the future.
