In this article, we will cover how to configure the structured education fields on an existing job post.
Note: The configuration process for structured education fields is also applicable to users who are are creating new job posts for existing jobs and/or creating job posts as part of a new job configuration.
Click the All Jobs tab from the navigation bar and select a job from the subsequent list.
Click Job Setup and navigate to Job Posts on the left-hand side.
From the Job Posts page, click the Edit icon inline with the job post to be edited.
Navigate down the Edit Your Job Post page to the Basic Application Information panel. Under the Education section, toggle the settings of the 7 structured education fields to either:
Required | Education field will be visible and will require a value before the candidate can successfully apply or be added to a job. |
Optional | Education field will be visible but will not need a value before the candidate can successfully apply or be added to a job. |
Hidden | Education field will be hidden from the candidate and/or user adding a candidate to a job. |
Note: Available settings for the Start Month and End Month structured education fields will follow the configuration of Start Year and End Year, respectively (i.e. you cannot make Start Month required and Start Year optional).
When finished, navigate down the page and click Save.
