Reposting or bumping active jobs over three months old:

Betterteam does not automatically repost, or "bump", your job posts. If you have had a job open for more than three months then we recommend closing it and posting a new job. Also take the time to update the title or job post copy to freshen it up as this may help target additional candidates who did not see the old job.

We suggest reading this article for more tips on how to increase the response rate on your jobs.

Reopening closed jobs under three months old:

If the job is currently closed (and under 3 months old) you can click on the Reopen Job button and make any edits you like and then publish it again. This is not the same as posting a new job as it will be seen as an old job that has been updated. Any changes you make will get syndicated out to our network of job boards.

Should I repost or reopen a job?

If the job has been closed for over three months we recommend posting a brand new job vs reopening an old one. This will get you more candidates as it will be seen as a new job but you do need to be careful about how frequently you repost jobs using this method. Excessively reposting jobs that are under three months old can be seen as a policy violation by some of our job board partners

Should I change the wording in the job post when I repost?

If you are not attracting enough candidates it is usually due to the job title being obscure or the content not resonating with candidates. Spend some time reading this article on how to write a great job post and incorporate some of the tips into your reposted job.
