Note: A job board must be Live before you can create a tracking link.
Tracking links are unique URLs that allow your organization to track a candidate's source when they apply to a job. While your organization can create tracking links for individual job posts, you can also create a tracking link for an entire job board.
Use Case: If your organization plans to share a job board through a marketing campaign, Greenhouse Recruiting recommends that you generate a tracking link for the job board so you can track the source for candidates entering your system via the campaign.
There are two methods to create a tracking link for a job board on Greenhouse Recruiting. In this article, we will cover:
Create tracking link for your job board via Configure page
Click the Configure icon in the upper-right hand corner and navigate to Job Board & Posts on the left-hand panel.
Find a job board on the subsequent Job Boards list and click the ellipsis beside the job board name. Click Tracking Link from the dropdown menu.
Use the Get a Tracking Link dialog box to configure the Who gets credit and Source fields. Click Create Link when finished.
Note: Only users who have signed into Greenhouse Recruiting can be selected to receive credit. Individuals who have a Greenhouse Recruiting account but have not signed into the platform will not appear as options in the Who gets credit dropdown.
A tracking link for the job board will be generated in the provided field. Copy the tracking link and share.
Note: If you are generating the link for an external / third-party job board, paste the tracking link wherever you are providing instructions as to where candidates should go to apply. Many external job boards have a special field for links to the application, but some may have only a free-text entry box where you will need to write your own text and then paste the link.
