  • Publish or post the opening to the career portal and job boards. This permission was previously referred to as “Published or Unpublished.”

  • Use long registration. The long registration form requests an address in addition to the basic registration fields.  If you don’t use long registration, it’ll just ask for name, email and phone number.

  • Request a resume. If you select this, you have the option to make the resume required.

  • Allow the candidate to initiate Quick Apply, adding a "Quick Apply" button next to the "Apply Now" button when an applicant previews the opening. This was previously referred to as the “Message to Recruiter” option.

  • Include Cover Letter to give candidates a text box to type or copy/paste a cover letter. 

  • Allow applicants to reapply.
