FAQs

Can I submit my Job without an Apply URL? No. The Apply URL is required because Heritage Web doesn't process applications. Candidates need to know where to apply.

What if I don't have a careers page? Use any URL where candidates can apply—a job board posting (LinkedIn, Indeed), a Google Form, or an email link (mailto:[email protected]).

Can I change the Apply URL after approval? Yes, but the change will go through review. Your current approved version stays visible until the new version is approved.

How specific should my Industries selection be? Select all industries that genuinely relate to the position. More relevant selections help your job reach qualified candidates across different community publications.

What happens if my job description is flagged for compliance? You'll receive an email explaining the concern. Review your description for potentially discriminatory language, revise, and resubmit.
