To post Jobs to CareerBuilder from Crelate, you need a CareerBuilder account and a Vendor ID from CareerBuilder. Enter the Vendor ID under Settings > Portals > Job Board Publishing, then open a published Job and select Post Now. CareerBuilder handles all billing for your account.

What do I need before I post to CareerBuilder?

You need two things:

A CareerBuilder account. Crelate cannot post to CareerBuilder until your account is set up.
A CareerBuilder Vendor ID. CareerBuilder provides this number after your account is set up. You must contact CareerBuilder to get it. Crelate cannot look it up or generate it for you.

Job boards must also be enabled for your organization. If Job Board Publishing is not available in your settings, see [Enabling Job Boards for Your Organization].

How do I connect my CareerBuilder account to Crelate?

Select Settings > Portals > Job Board Publishing.
Under Premium Job Board Integrations, find CareerBuilder.
Enter your Vendor ID in the field, and select Save.

A CareerBuilder Vendor ID has 20 characters and usually starts with ED. (e.g., such as ED•••••••••••••••••••.)

💡 Pro Tip: Copy your Vendor ID directly from the message you receive from CareerBuilder, then paste it into Crelate. A single mistyped character prevents the connection from working.

How do I post a Job to CareerBuilder?

Open the Job you want to post. If the Job has not been published, [publish it first].
Near the top of the Publish section, select Post Now.
Select CareerBuilder as your vendor, choose your Job Type, and agree to the terms and conditions. [Confirm the current steps, including whether Purchase still appears.]

Your Job is then posted to CareerBuilder for one calendar month. [Confirm the posting length.] Each job vendor posts on its own timeline, so it may take up to 24 hours for the Job to appear on CareerBuilder.

How do I update a Job after I post it to CareerBuilder?

Edit the Job in the Publish section of the Job. Crelate automatically sends a request to CareerBuilder to update the posting.

Who bills me for CareerBuilder postings?

CareerBuilder bills you directly, according to the terms of your account with CareerBuilder. Crelate does not bill for CareerBuilder postings.

Key takeaway

To post Jobs to CareerBuilder, get a Vendor ID from CareerBuilder, and enter it under Settings > Portals > Job Board Publishing. Then open a published Job and select Post Now. The posting runs for one calendar month, may take up to 24 hours to appear, and is billed by CareerBuilder. Edits you make to the Job in the Publish section are sent to CareerBuilder automatically.
