WP Job Portal by Jane

Description

WP Job Portal displays your jobs on your careers page, allows candidates to apply online through your website, and then organizes their resumes in your very own applicant tracking system (ATS). Being shortcode based, WP Job Portal works with any theme, is really simple to setup, and best of all is FREE!

Features

  • Create a careers page or enable your existing careers page to automatically display new job openings

  • Create or edit new job openings

  • Invite team members to create new job openings

  • Allow candidates to apply online by uploading their resumes and cover letters (if desired)

  • Organize candidate resumes by job in our free applicant tracking system (ATS) instead of in your inbox

  • Rate candidate resumes and take notes

  • Use our widget to list job openings on page sidebars and footers

  • Create unique pages for specific jobs and add featured images

  • Job listings and job pages automatically adopt your theme’s unique styles

The plugin comes with two types of shortcodes:

  1. The main shortcode lists all your job openings

  2. Each job gets a unique shortcode that can be placed in any page or post

API

The WP Job Portal by Jane plugin uses the features of Janehires.com through its own API.

If specified during plugin setup, the API will create a new Janehires account for you.

Once installed, the plugin will use the API to display your company’s jobs within: a careers page, a widget, and a shortcode – all of which is fully customizable by you.

Reviews

And believe me, I did try a few. Loved how easy it was for me to get started without having to do any research, which all the other plugins seemed to require. I was able to post my jobs immediately, and also to see all its functionalities. I also tested the resume upload function and loved it. The only downside was it doesn’t allow you to put the jobs in categories, I will look out for that function. They also have amazing support. I have used plugins for over my 15 years of working with wordpress, and never have I been contacted by the designer to find out how I was faring or to offer help. This plugin definitely earned a 5-star rating!
