Editing a Job Posting

You can edit your job postings anytime from your employer dashboard.
​

Updating your listing allows you to improve job descriptions, adjust compensation details, update requirements, or make corrections after publishing.


How to Edit a Job Posting

To edit an existing job:

  1. Log in to your employer dashboard.

  2. Open the sidebar menu.

  3. Go to My Jobs.

  4. Find the job you want to update.

  5. Click the edit option.

  6. Make your changes.

  7. Save the updated listing.

You can edit all major job fields, including:

  • Job title

  • Description

  • Compensation

  • Skills and requirements

  • Location

  • Custom application fields

  • Expiration settings


What Happens After Editing a Job?

Edited jobs may undergo moderation review again before becoming publicly visible.

For free employer accounts:

  • All edits trigger moderation review

For premium employers:

  • Some edits may be approved automatically depending on our internal review systems, while some edits trigger prioritized manual review

Please note that moderation logic and review criteria are not publicly disclosed.


Temporary Visibility Changes During Review

If moderation review is triggered:

  • The job may temporarily become hidden from public listings

  • Applications may pause temporarily

  • The listing becomes visible again once approved

Most reviews are completed:

  • Within approximately 1 hour

  • Sometimes within a few hours depending on moderation workload


Edit Expired Jobs

Depending on your membership plan, you may also be able to reactivate the listing after making changes.


Notifications After Review

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

  • Approved

  • Rejected

You can also track the current status directly from the My Jobs section.


Pause or Delete Instead of Editing

From the My Jobs page, you can also:

  • Pause a job temporarily

  • Delete a job permanently

Pausing is recommended if you may reopen the position later.


Troubleshooting

Why did my job disappear after editing?

Some edits trigger moderation review, which may temporarily hide the listing until approval is completed.

Can I edit a job multiple times?

Yes. There is currently no limit on how many times a job posting can be updated.

Why was my edited job rejected?

Jobs may be rejected if updated content violates platform guidelines or moderation requirements.

Review the rejection reason, update the listing, and resubmit it for review.


Pro Tip

Before saving edits, carefully review your listing to reduce repeated moderation reviews.

Detailed job descriptions, transparent compensation, and accurate requirements usually lead to faster approvals and better applicant quality on OnlineJobs.
