Note

Shared list controls — documented once on Candidates. The search bar, the 6 filter types (text, number, date, select-single, select-multi, file), the Sort popover, saved filters and the favorites bar behave exactly the same on every list in Nextal. They are documented in detail on the Candidates list page — this page only lists what is specific to this list (its filter set, sort keys, columns, row actions, bulk actions, export fields and page-level toggles).

Screenshot pendingThe full Jobs list with toolbar, Filter out closed job checkbox, columns and pagination

The Jobs list. Search, Filters and sort sit on the left of the toolbar; Bulk Import, Export, the Filter out closed job checkbox and Add Job are on the right.

Toolbar at a glance

From left to right:

• Search input (with magnifier icon).
• Filters button (filter funnel icon) — shows the number of applied filters.
• Sort button — names the current order (Newest first by default).
• Bulk Import — only visible if you have permission to create jobs. Opens the job bulk import.
• Export button — opens the export side panel. Requires permission to create jobs.
• Filter out closed job checkbox — sits right before Add Job. Ticked by default; URL param ?displayClosedJob=true|false. When ticked, closed jobs are excluded from the list and from any export.
• Add Job button (with a + icon) — only visible if you have permission to create jobs. Opens the create-job side panel.

On a narrow window, the right-hand group moves to a second line. The list’s total and the small ⟳ button (Refresh the list), which reloads the list, sit right of the page title.

Sort keys

The Sort popover exposes:

• Relevance — only available when a text search is active; becomes the new default when search is on.

Columns in the table

The Jobs list shows 7 columns:

1. Checkbox — only visible if you have edit access to jobs. Used for bulk select.
2. Title — the client logo, the job title and, below it, the client and the job number (Client · #123, followed by the external reference when there is one). The title is a link to the job detail.
3. Status — colored chip from the job’s status configuration.
4. Published — Yes / No indicator.
5. New applicants — count of applicants currently at the first workflow step.
6. Total applicants — count of all applications ever made on this job.
7. Creation Date — with an extra (N Open days) annotation showing how many days the job has been open.

Opening a job from the list

Click anywhere on a row to open the job detail at /jobs/<id> — that is where you edit it. Ctrl + click (⌘ + click on a Mac) or middle-click the title to open it in a new tab. The checkbox and the applicant counts, which lead to the job’s kanban, keep their own action.

Rows have no 3-dot menu. To open a job’s kanban, click one of its applicant counts, or tick the job and use View applicant kanban in the selection bar.

Bulk actions

Screenshot pendingThe selection bar that replaces the toolbar when one job is ticked: “1 job selected”, Clear, Publish, Unpublish, Add tag, Change status, View applicant kanban

When jobs are ticked, the selection bar replaces the toolbar. View applicant kanban only appears when exactly one job is ticked.

When at least one row is ticked (master checkbox or per-row checkbox — visible if you have edit access to jobs), the selection bar replaces the toolbar. It shows how many jobs are ticked (2 jobs selected — using the name your organization gives to jobs), Clear, which unticks every row, then the actions:

1. Publish (share-forward icon) — publishes every selected job (sets it visible on the career page).
2. Unpublish (filled share-forward icon) — removes every selected job from the career page.
3. Add tag (tag icon) — opens a tag picker side panel; the chosen tags are appended to each selected job (existing tags are kept).
4. Change status (board icon) — opens a status picker side panel; the chosen status is applied to every selected job.
5. View applicant kanban (eye icon) — only when exactly one job is ticked. Opens that job’s kanban (/jobApplicants/<id>).

There is no bulk Merge, no bulk Delete, no bulk Send — only the actions above.

Export

Screenshot pendingThe Export side panel for Jobs with the 32 toggleable fields list and the Export button

Export side panel — 32 toggleable fields. The current filter, search and sort are applied, plus the Filter-out-closed-job toggle.

Tips

• Untick “Filter out closed job” before exporting if you need historical jobs in your report — closed jobs are excluded by default both on screen and in the export.
• Use the Recruiter / Hiring Manager filters to build per-user views (“My open jobs”, “Marie’s filled jobs in 2025”) — then save them as favorites.
• Skills + Status Type = OPEN is the fastest way to find “which open jobs need React people right now?”.
