Editing a Job Posting

You can update your job postings anytime from your employer dashboard.

Editing a job allows you to keep information accurate, update compensation details, adjust requirements, or improve your listing to attract better candidates.


Edit an Existing Job

To edit a job posting:

  1. Log in to your employer dashboard.

  2. Go to My Jobs.

  3. Find the job you want to update.

  4. Click the edit option for the listing.

  5. Update the necessary information.

  6. Save your changes.

You can edit all major job fields, including:

  • Job title

  • Description

  • Compensation

  • Skills

  • Location

  • Custom application fields

  • Expiration settings


What Happens After Editing a Job

For quality and safety purposes, edited job postings must go through moderation review again.

After saving changes:

  • The job will temporarily become hidden

  • The updated version enters moderation review

  • Once approved, the job becomes publicly visible again

Most reviews are completed within:

  • Around 1 hour

  • Sometimes a few hours depending on moderation workload


Edit Expired Jobs

Expired job postings can still be edited.

You can:

  • Update job details

  • Adjust expiration settings

  • Reactivate the listing if your membership allows it


Pause or Delete a Job Posting

From the My Jobs section, you can also:

Pause a Job

Temporarily hide a job posting without permanently removing it.

This is useful if:

  • Hiring is temporarily paused

  • You already received enough applicants

  • The position is temporarily on hold

Delete a Job

Permanently remove a job posting from your account.

Deleted jobs cannot be restored.


Notifications After Review

You will receive a notification once your edited job posting has been:

  • Approved

  • Rejected

You can also track job status directly from the My Jobs page.


Troubleshooting

Why did my job disappear after editing?

Edited jobs are temporarily hidden while they undergo moderation review again.

This helps maintain listing quality and candidate trust across the platform.

Can I edit a job multiple times?

Yes. There is currently no limit on how many times you can edit a job posting.

Why was my edited job rejected?

Jobs may be rejected if they violate platform guidelines or contain incomplete, misleading, or prohibited content.

Review your job details and try submitting again if needed.


Pro Tip

Before saving edits, review your job posting carefully to minimize repeated moderation reviews.

Clear job descriptions, accurate compensation details, and complete requirements usually lead to better candidate engagement and faster approvals on OnlineJobs.
