Job detail
Everything about one job in one page — title, client, status, publishing state, plus tabs for detail, description, files, reports, comments, tasks. The header is edited with the Edit button, in one panel; the Detail tab, section by section, in a side panel.
The job detail page is where you spend most of your time when working on a specific job opening. It loads when you click a row in the jobs list.
On a wide screen (1280 pixels and up), the job card sits in the left column and stays in place while you work in the tabs, on the right. On a narrower screen, it becomes a compact band above the tabs. The layout is the same as on the candidate profile — a button to hide the side panel, tabs under More, the compact band — without an AI Summary.
The job card
From top to bottom:
- Jobs — the link back to the list, at the top left. At the top right: the Edit button (see Editing the header) and the 3-dot menu.
- The logo and the title — the client’s logo (or initials), then the job title in your interface language — failing that, in your organisation’s default language.
- The client and the number — under the title, the client name, a link to its profile, and the job number (#1042).
- Status and publishing — two pills: the job status (Open, On Hold, Closed, etc., per your organisation’s configured statuses) and Published in green, with the publish date, or Not Published in red.
- The details — the location and work mode (Montréal, QC · Hybrid), the recruiter, the hiring manager, the number of open positions and the department, then the publication end date. An empty value is not shown.
- Created on… — at the bottom of the card: the creation and publish dates, the last update with its author, and the closing date of a closed job.
The 3-dot action menu
The 3-dot menu, next to Edit, opens up to five options, depending on the job state and your permissions:
- Visit public page — opens the candidate-facing job page in a new tab (only if the job is published).
- Copy public page link — puts the public URL on your clipboard (only if the job is published).
- Republish job — updates the publish date to now, which pushes the job back to the top of the career page list. See Job publishing and syndication.
- Duplicate job — clones every field of the current job into a new job. See Job duplication.
- Delete job — opens a red confirmation. If the job has applications, deletion is blocked.
Editing the header
The card’s fields are edited together, in one panel:
- Click Edit — at the top of the job card, in the compact band on a narrower screen, or in the identity line when the side panel is hidden. The Edit job panel opens on the right.
- Change the fields you need. They are grouped in four sections:
- Identity — the Title, in the language shown on the page; a note says which (Language: English. The other languages are edited in the Description tab.). The title can’t be emptied (“Required”). If the job has no title in that language, the field is disabled: titles are then edited per language in the Description tab.
- Team — the Recruiter and the Hiring Manager, picked from your organisation’s users.
- Location — the job Address, used for distance-based candidate matching. It is picked from a search box with a map; until you pick a suggestion, the stored address is kept.
- Status and publication — the Status, from your organisation’s configured statuses (setting it to Closed closes the job — see Job closure), and Publication: Published or Not Published (see Job publishing and syndication).
- Click Save. The button turns on as soon as a field has changed; pressing Enter in a field does the same. The panel closes and the card shows the new values.
Cancel, the ✕, the Escape key or a click outside the panel close it without saving anything. If the save fails, the panel stays open with your entries and the message “The changes could not be saved. Please try again.”
The tab bar
Seven tabs cover every aspect of the job:
- Detail — all the structured fields about the job, in sections (overview, contract & pay, publishing, skills & tags, media, custom properties). See The Detail tab below.
- Description — the rich-text editor for the job posting. See Job description authoring and AI-assisted description generation.
- Applicant — clicking this tab redirects you to the dedicated kanban board for the job’s applicants. Documented separately.
- Files — documents attached to the job. See Job files.
- Reports — analytics dashboard for this job. See Job reports.
- Comments — internal team notes. See Job comments.
- Tasks — follow-up reminders. See Job tasks.
The active tab is remembered in the URL — share a URL with a teammate and they land on the same tab.
As on the candidate profile, the tabs that don’t fit on the bar move under More, and the button at the end of the bar hides or shows the side panel — see The tab bar of the candidate profile.
The Detail tab
This is where the structured job data lives — the default view when you open a job. The title, status, publishing state, address, recruiter and hiring manager are edited with the header’s Edit button (see Editing the header); the tab itself is organised like a candidate’s Profile tab: on the left, a section navigator highlights the section on screen and scrolls to the one you click; on the right, one read-only sheet per section, each with its own Edit button that opens a side panel. An empty field shows as a dash.
Overview
- Reference — an identifier to keep in sync with another system.
- Department — picked from the client’s configured departments.
- Number of open position, Categories, Hierarchical Level (junior, intermediate, senior, lead, etc.).
- Work mode — On-site, Hybrid or Remote; a dash until it is set. It is also chosen at job creation and available as a filter in the jobs list. It is sent to Indeed as the posting’s remote type (Fully remote for Remote, Hybrid remote for Hybrid; nothing for On-site), and the kanban uses it for the candidates’ mobility hint.
- Location — the job’s standard address, read-only here: it is edited with the header’s Edit button.
- Restricted — Yes / No. A restricted job is visible only to the users allowed on its client.
Contract & pay
- Contract Types, Schedules · Shifts — multi-select pickers.
- Hours per week, Annual salary, Hourly salary — each shown as a range (37.5 – 40; ≥ 60,000 when only the minimum is entered).
- Contract dates — start and end dates; leave the end empty for an open-ended contract.
- Fee — the recruitment fee for this hire, as a percentage.
- Social Advantages — the perks listed on the public job page, as chips.
Publishing
- Status and Published — recalled here read-only; they are changed with the header’s Edit button.
- Publication end date — the deadline set when publishing.
- Publishing Sites — where the job is broadcast, with an All sites note when applicable. See Job publishing and syndication.
- Allowed Countries — the countries applications may come from; empty = Any country.
- Survey — the pre-application survey, from the configured definitions.
- CV Requirement — Yes / No; unset, your organisation’s default applies.
- Employment Equity — Yes / No.
Skills & tags
Skills and Tags, as chips. The navigator’s counter says how many are set.
Media
The featured picture (with its preview) and the YouTube video (the URL, with the embedded video as a preview).
Custom properties
Any extra fields your admin has configured for jobs, one per line. The navigator’s counter says how many are filled in.
AI scoring
Only visible when the Nextal AI integration is enabled for your organisation: the weights used to rank this job’s candidates. See AI scoring weights.
Editing a section in the side panel
Click Edit on a sheet: the panel takes every field of that section — Edit overview, Edit contract & pay, Edit publishing, Edit skills & tags, Edit media, Edit custom properties. The work mode is chosen by clicking On-site, Hybrid or Remote (click again to clear); the featured picture is uploaded from the Media panel, with a Remove button. Save is only enabled once something has changed, and blocks with a message under the field when a value is invalid — a maximum below the minimum, an end date before the start date, a number of positions that is not a whole number. Cancel discards.
The navigator remembers the section in the address (?tab=detail#publishing, for instance) — share the link to bring a teammate straight to the right section.

Tips
- Use the Reports tab during client reviews. The Reports tab shows time-to-hire, application volume by source, conversion rates — exactly what clients ask in quarterly reviews.
- Deep-link to a specific tab. The URL contains the tab name — share it to send teammates straight to a comment thread or a report view.
- Set the recruiter early. Once a recruiter owns a job, they get the notifications when applications come in.
