Job openings
A table for the jobs you are hiring for, with pay, hours, what the job is and how to apply, shown on your site's careers page.
Use it when
Use it when you hire people and want each open job on your website with the facts an applicant looks for: the kind of job, where it is, the pay and hours, what the work is, who you're looking for and how to apply.
Use something else when
For work you do for customers, use Job tracker. To introduce the people already on your team, use People.

- Under its sidebar, press Add item.

- Choose Job openings and keep New table, or reuse a compatible existing table.
- Check the public columns, then press Review changes.

Example
Maple Street Hall, a fictional event venue, adds "Event server", Part-time, in Lansing, $16 an hour, Friday and Saturday evenings, with what the job involves, what it asks for and its application link. When the post is filled it sets the job to Closed and writes "This role is filled, thank you" under When closed.
Limits
- Applications aren't collected in the table. People apply through your link or email.
- The pay and hours are words you write, not amounts the site works out.
- A job isn't closed by itself on its closing date. Set it to Closed yourself.
