If you try to edit a job that is more than 30 days old, you will receive a Job Posting Warning asking if you would like to refresh your job and transfer candidates.
Refreshing your job is not the same as Editing your job.
- Editing Job: Editing a job allows you to make updates to the job posting without changing the post date. This means the original post date will be listed with the post. If you edit a job that is over a year old, the post date will still be over a year old. This is not recommended because most job boards will push jobs over 30 days old lower in the search results.
- Refreshing Job: When you refresh a job post, you are actually creating a new job posting that will have an updated post date. When you choose to refresh a job posting through AvaHR, your job posting will be duplicated and reposted at that day's date. All of the information in your original job posting will carry over to the new job posting. Keeping your job posting refreshed and up to date is the best way to ensure your job is staying in the top search results on the job boards.
If you select Edit Current Job, you will then receive a warning and have the option of refreshing the job, or continue to edit.
