Employment Fields are structured data fields that are used to track a candidate's employment history. In this article we will cover how to input a candidate's employment record into employment fields, activate employment fields on job posts, and filter candidates by employment fields.
Note: To be submitted, every employment record must include the following free text employment fields: Company, Title, Start Date, End Date (or current checkbox).
Input Candidate Employment Fields
