Editing a job allows you to make updates to job descriptions, requirements, stages, or application settings—especially when business needs change mid-cycle.

Steps to edit an existing job

  1. Go to the Jobs module
    • From the left-side menu, click Jobs to view the job list.
  2. Find the job
    • Search or filter by job title, department, or status (Open, Closed, etc.).
  3. Click the Edit icon
    • On the right side of the job listing, click the pencil/edit icon.
  4. Update job information
    You can update any of the following:
    • Job Title or Code
    • Job Description or Skills
    • Department or Hiring Pipeline
    • Application Form fields
    • Job Settings (auto-close, recruiters, vendors, permissions)
  5. Navigate through setup tabs
    • Use the tab interface (Job Details → Pipeline → Application Form → Settings) to jump to the specific section you want to edit.
  6. Save your changes
    • Click Save or Finish to apply and retain your updates.

Tips

  • Saved changes take effect immediately if the job is published.
  • Consider cloning instead of editing if you’re hiring for a similar but separate role.
