Article summary

When creating a job opening, you can choose in the Job Publishing section whether the job opening is to be published and where.

The titles of publishing options, selected in the Publish To field, are customizable, but are based on predefined publishing types that provide you with the ability to publish a job opening internally in Lanteria HR, and/or on the web, on such places as your company web site (Candidate Self-Service), the SEEK employer site, JobTarget or another site integrated with Lanteria HR. 

To be able to select a place where a job opening will be published on, job publishing options must be set up.

To set up job opening publishing options

  1. Go to Settings > Settings and Configuration > Recruiting.
  2. Click Job Publishing in the left panel, and then click Edit next to Job Publishing Options.
  3. To add a new job publishing option, click Add Publishing Option in the Job Opening Publishing Options window. To edit a publishing option, click its title.
  4. In the Title field, specify the title for the job publishing option that will be displayed in the Publish To field when creating a new job opening.
  5. Select the Active check box to enable this job publishing option when creating job openings.
    Tip
    If you do not plan to use a publishing option, it is recommended that you deactivate it rather than delete it so that you could quickly enable it when necessary rather than reconfigure from scratch.
  6. In the Type field, select the publishing type that defines a place where a job opening will be published on:

    • Intranet – A job opening will be published internally in Lanteria HR to make it available to Lanteria HR employees through the Employee menu (My Company >  Job Openings).
    • Career Portal –  A job opening will be published to the company web site and the candidates will be able to apply through the Candidate Self-Service. Please note that for this option to work, Candidate Self-Service site is to be installed and set up.
    • SEEK – A job opening will be published on the SEEK employer site, from which it can then be posted on Australia's top jobs, employment, career and recruitment site. Set up this job publishing option if you use integration with SEEK.
    • JobTarget – A job opening will be first published on the Candidate Self-Service site, from which it will be retrieved by the JobTarget job posting distribution platform, from which it will be available for publishing on multiple sites and platforms.
    • ZipRecruiter – A job opening will be first published on the Candidate Self-Service site, from which it will be retrieved by the LHR - ZipRecruiter Integration job and sent to ZipRecruiter where it can be managed and published on the ZipRecruiter platform. Set up this job publishing option if you use integration with ZipRecruiter.
    • Talenteria – A job opening will be published (through the Candidate Self-Service site) on sites created in Talenteria, configured in the Talenteria job publishing option. Set up this job publishing option if you use integration with Talenteria.
  7. In the Candidate Source field, select the candidate source that will be assigned to the candidates automatically created in Lanteria HR based on their application through the current option.
  8. Click Save.
  9. Create more publishing options if necessary. You can create several publishing options with the same type. This may be necessary, for example, if you have several career portals and want to have them all available for selection when choosing where to publish a job opening.

After saving a publishing option, a GUID (Globally Unique Identifier) will be generated for it. This unique identifier is used when setting up Lanteria HR and external web site integration for publishing the job openings and exchanging the application data.

Advanced/Additional Settings

After a job publishing option has been created, you need to also configure advanced/additional settings for publishing options with the Career Portal, SEEK, JobTarget, and ZipRecruiter types.

However, you can publish a job opening only for one SEEK publishing option (one job opening for one SEEK advertiser).
