The Google Tag Manager integration injects your GTM container into the public career portal. Once active, any tags you manage in Google Tag Manager — Google Analytics, conversion pixels, heat maps, or custom scripts — fire automatically on your career site pages without requiring code changes on the Nextal side.

What it does

  • Loads the Google Tag Manager container on your public career portal pages.
  • Enables any tag, trigger, or variable configured in your GTM workspace to run on the career portal (page views, application starts, application completions, and so on).

Prerequisites

  • A Google Tag Manager account with a container set up for your career portal domain.
  • Your GTM Container ID — it looks like GTM-XXXXXX and is visible on the GTM dashboard.

How to activate

  1. Go to Administration → Integrations and find the Google Tag Manager card (category “Career page tracking”).
  2. Click Configure on the card: the integration panel opens on the right.
  3. Paste your Google Tag Manager container ID (e.g. GTM-XXXXXX) into the field. There is no switch to tick: the integration is active as soon as an ID is saved.
  4. Click Save.

The container will load on the career portal on the next page request — no deployment needed.

Tips

  • Verify the container ID, not the workspace name. The ID starts with GTM- and is found on the main containers list in your GTM account, not the workspace details.
  • Clear your browser cache after activating to see the container fire on the career portal right away.
  • Use GTM Preview mode to test your tags before publishing them to production — GTM’s built-in debugger lets you confirm which tags fire on each career portal page.
  • Removing the ID deactivates tracking immediately. Clearing the field and saving removes the container from all career portal pages.
