Backfill & Automation

Automatically populate your job board with jobs from external sources.

AJ
By Abi Tyas Tunggal and Jack Walsh

Backfilling helps you populate your job board with relevant jobs automatically.

What is backfill?

Backfill is the automatic import of jobs from external sources like Indeed, LinkedIn, or company career pages into your job board. This solves the chicken-and-egg problem every new job board faces: you need jobs to attract candidates, but employers want to see traffic before posting. Backfill gives you fresh content from day one.

This is especially useful when:

  • You're just starting and need initial content
  • You want to supplement employer-posted jobs
  • You're building a niche aggregator

How it works

  1. Configure backfill rules for specific companies or categories
  2. Jobs matching your criteria are imported automatically
  3. Your board displays a mix of backfilled and direct-posted jobs
