- Directly before </body>
Conversion Page – Available when Advertising Pixel Type Conversion is selected. Choose which page you would like to track: an application process or a specific page in your menu (which will only work with URLs from OnShift Employ).
Tracking Code – If using a vendor’s pixel, add your JavaScript tracking code (if customizing) in the box provided and check Submit. OnShift will review the pixel's validity and security.

Using Tracking Codes

There are 3 tracking codes provided for tracking conversions. These links will redirect to either the homepage, Current Openings (Job Opening Browse), or a specific job position description (Job Opening View).

Copy the tracking code and paste it into the job board advertisement, social media or other advert.

To track a specific job, use the Job Opening View link and replace {opening_id} with the job ID number.

Important

The Tracking Code must be the link used in the actual advertisement or social media post to provide tracking.
