Indeed Sponsored Posting

Publish a job from Crelate to Indeed by enabling Indeed in Job Board Publishing settings, publishing the job, and setting your budget in your Indeed account.

Crelate sends your published jobs to Indeed in a feed. Publishing to Indeed requires an Indeed account, and billing is handled by Indeed, not by Crelate.


Before you begin

Job boards must be enabled for your organization before you can publish to Indeed, and publishing to Indeed requires an Indeed account. If Job Board Publishing is not available in your settings, see Enabling Job Boards for Your Organization.


Publish a job to Indeed

  1. Select Settings, then Portals, and then Job Board Publishing.

  2. Set Job Board Publishing to Enabled.

  3. Select the option for Select Individual Job Boards, and set Indeed to Yes.

  4. Publish the job. When it is published, it is added to the Indeed feed that Crelate sends, and Indeed publishes it to your existing Indeed account.

  5. When you first start posting to Indeed, you will also want to inform your Indeed Representative that you have opted into Crelate’s job publishing feed, so that they are on the lookout for it and can make sure they have everything set up on their end.

  6. Once the job appears in your Indeed account, which may take up to 24 hours, set your custom budget in Indeed. This lets you opt jobs “Out of Campaign” into your existing Indeed campaign.

Note: Crelate controls only whether your jobs are made available to Indeed. Whether they appear in search results is subject to Indeed’s quality review and rules.


Indeed settings

Two options appear under Indeed.

  • Share Disposition Data with Indeed: Turn this on to share disposition data with Indeed, which increases the chance of the highest quality applicants.

  • Match Application Form to Indeed Screener: Turn this on, and when you set an Application Form on a job and publish it to Indeed, the questions from that form transfer to Indeed as Indeed Screener questions. Candidates answer them on Indeed as part of the application process.


Billing

Crelate does not bill for Indeed-related postings. This is handled entirely with your Indeed account representative. Connecting your Indeed account to Crelate and setting a budget prompts your Indeed representative to contact you. All billing and transactions happen on Indeed’s end after the feed has been sent. Crelate sends an updated jobs feed to Indeed every 4 hours.


Not seeing Job Board Publishing?

Job Board Publishing is available only on the current Job Portal. If you are still on the original Job Portal (V1), you need to update to the current Job Portal first. Job Portal deprecation and Portal Widget has more detail.
