Quick Answer
Job listings on Heritage Web are intentionally designed without cover images or primary logos. This streamlined approach keeps the focus on job details and directs applicants to your company website or careers page. The only image available is your company logo within the required Hiring Organization section.

Why Job Listings Are Different
Focus on Job Details
Job seekers are primarily interested in:
Job title and description
Requirements and qualifications
Compensation and benefits
Location and work arrangement
How to apply
Visual branding is secondary—candidates want information, not imagery.
Clear Application Workflow
Heritage Web Job listings are designed to direct candidates to your official application process:
The Job Website field prominently displays your application URL
Candidates apply through your careers page or ATS (Applicant Tracking System)
This matches employer expectations for professional hiring workflows
Employer Branding Through Hiring Organization
Your company is represented through the Hiring Organization section, which includes:
Company logo (optional but recommended)
Company name and description
Company website
Headquarters location
This provides sufficient employer branding without cluttering the job posting.
Simplified Experience
Job listings have a 90-day lifespan and are often created in batches. The streamlined format:
Reduces time to post
Keeps listings consistent
Focuses attention on job requirements
Minimizes review complexity
Making the Most of Your Job Listing
Even without cover images, you can create compelling Job listings:
1. Add Your Company Logo
Upload your logo in the Hiring Organization section. This is the only image available, so make it count.
2. Write a Strong Job Description
Without images to capture attention, your job title and description do the heavy lifting. Be clear, specific, and compelling.
3. Complete All Hiring Organization Fields
Provide comprehensive company information to build credibility:
Detailed company description
Link to your main website
Accurate headquarters location
4. Use the Job Website Field
Direct candidates to your careers page or application portal where they can see more about your company culture and opportunities.
What If I Need More Visual Branding?
If showcasing your company visually is important for recruiting:
Create an Organization listing for your company with:
Company logo
Cover image
Up to 5 additional images (office, team, culture)
Detailed company overview
Then link to it from your Job listings or include your Organization listing URL in the job description. This gives interested candidates a place to learn more about your company visually.
FAQs
Can I request cover image support for Job listings? This is a platform design decision, not a missing feature. Job listings are intentionally streamlined. Use an Organization listing if visual branding is essential.
Will Job listings ever have cover images? Heritage Web's Job listing design prioritizes efficiency and the information job seekers need most. There are no current plans to add cover images to Job listings.
How do I make my Job listing stand out without images? Focus on a compelling job title, detailed description, competitive compensation information, and complete Hiring Organization details including your logo.
Can I add images to the job description text? No. Job descriptions are text-only and don't support embedded images or HTML.
Why does the Hiring Organization logo exist if there's no cover image? The Hiring Organization logo identifies the employer—helping job seekers recognize legitimate companies. It serves a different purpose than a decorative cover image.
My Organization listing has images. Why doesn't my Job listing? Different listing types serve different purposes. Organization listings showcase businesses to potential clients. Job listings connect employers with candidates—the focus is on the opportunity, not visual presentation.
