How to create a Career

A Career is an open role. People can apply for it on your careers site.

Before you start

• You must be signed in.
• These roles can create a Career: owner, administrator, hiring manager, and Office Administrator.
• If you are an Office Administrator, you must select at least one office that you administer. If you do not, the form shows: Select at least one office you administer.
• If you are a hiring manager or an Office Administrator, and you do not select a hiring manager, the system assigns you as the hiring manager.
• A new Career is listed on the public site. It is open for applications unless you change that later.

The create flow has three steps: Career details, Application questions, and Share.
