Boards can now add their own employment types and decide which ones posters can pick. A transport board in Australia can offer "Casual" next to Full-time, and a mining board can offer "FIFO", without confusing candidates with types they never see in their industry.
How it works
Open Settings → Job form → Employment type. Every type is listed in one place, built-in and custom, in the order posters see them.
- Add type: give it a name, such as Casual, and choose its Google equivalent, such as Part-time. Common names suggest one for you
- Offered: untick a type to stop posters picking it. Existing jobs keep their type
- Reorder: drag types into the order you want the job form to show them
- Key: each custom type has a key, suggested from the name, that stays fixed once saved. Jobs, filters and translations use it, so renaming a type is safe
What candidates and Google see
Candidates see your name for the type on the job, in filters, and in the API and SDK, so "Casual" stays "Casual". Filtering by Part-time shows Part-time jobs, not Casual ones.
Google for Jobs and job feeds read the Google equivalent instead, because Google only accepts its own list of types. A Casual job is marked as part-time for Google, so it stays eligible for Google for Jobs.
Custom types are never deleted, so a job never loses its type: untick one to retire it. Once saved, a type's key and Google equivalent are locked so every job using it stays consistent.
Read Job form settings for the details, or the jobs reference to show custom types on an AI-built board.
