Quick Answer

Job listings remain active for 90 days from the date of approval. After 90 days, the listing expires and is removed from active publication. You'll receive notifications as expiration approaches, giving you time to renew if the position is still open.

Overview

Heritage Web job listings have a 90-day lifecycle to ensure job seekers see current, relevant opportunities. This timeframe balances giving employers adequate exposure while keeping the job board fresh and accurate.

What Happens at Each Phase

Active Phase (Days 1-75)

Your job listing displays on assigned publications, appears in search results, and candidates can view and apply through your provided application link.

Approaching Expiration (Days 76-85)

You receive email notifications that your listing will expire soon. This is your prompt to either renew the posting or let it expire if the position is filled.

Final Warning (Days 86-90)

More urgent reminders arrive. If you haven't renewed by day 90, the listing prepares for expiration.

Expired (Day 91+)

The listing is removed from all publications and no longer visible to job seekers. Your listing data remains in your dashboard for reference or renewal.

Important Notes

  • The 90-day period starts from approval, not submission

  • Notifications go to recipients configured in your Notifications tab

  • Expired listings can be renewed to extend visibility

  • Your listing information is preserved even after expiration

FAQs

Can I extend beyond 90 days without changes? Yes. Renewing restarts the 90-day period without requiring you to modify the job details.

What if I need the job listed longer from the start? The 90-day period is standard. Plan to renew if your hiring timeline extends beyond this window.

Is there a limit to how many times I can renew? There's no hard limit. Renew as needed while the position remains open.

What happens to applicants who saved the job? Once expired, the listing is no longer accessible. Encourage candidates to apply promptly when they find your posting.
