Before you start

Have the role and company details ready

You need a signed-in user account with access to a company workspace before you can create a job. If you do not have a company connection yet, the platform sends you to employer onboarding. A view-only company member can review access but cannot publish the role.

Prepare the role title, department if useful, job type, experience level, work location, and the information candidates need to decide whether the role fits. Keep the wording specific to one real opening.

Use one clear title, such as Front Office Agent or Chef de Partie, instead of combining unrelated roles.
Know whether the role is full-time, part-time, contract, seasonal, or an internship.
Choose the experience level that matches the responsibility rather than using senior wording to attract more applications.
Have the city, region, location type, and any useful location detail ready.

Step one

Describe where and how the work happens

The basic information step asks for the job title, optional department, job type, experience level, location type, city, and region. You can also add a specific location, street address, postal code, or map location when that detail helps a candidate understand the workplace.

The form also supports shift schedule choices, seasonal dates for seasonal or contract work, driver licence requirements, and vehicle access. Only select these when they describe the actual role. A candidate should be able to see the practical conditions before spending time on an application.

Use the city and region fields consistently so the job can be found in location searches.
Choose on-site, remote, or hybrid based on the way the role is performed.
Add day, night, split, weekend, or live-in schedule details when they apply.
State driver and vehicle expectations clearly instead of leaving a candidate to guess.

Step two

Give candidates the information they need to judge the role

The details step separates the main description, responsibilities, requirements, and benefits. Use the description to explain the purpose of the role and the workplace context. Use responsibilities for the work the person will handle. Use requirements for experience, skills, languages, certificates, or licences that are genuinely related to the job.

The form also lets you add required languages and certifications. Keep them specific. If a certificate is preferred rather than required, say that in the wording instead of presenting it as a gate.

Write for the department and property setting, not for an imaginary candidate who can do everything.
Separate daily duties from the experience or capability needed to do them.
Mention benefits only when they are part of the role and can be explained accurately.
Use short paragraphs and lists so the published description is readable on a phone.

Steps three and four

Set compensation and screening details without adding noise

Compensation is optional in the form. You can enter a minimum and maximum amount, choose the currency and pay period, and choose whether to show the salary range. If you do not want to publish a range, leave the display option off rather than inserting a vague figure in the description.

The screening step lets you add questions with text, longer text, yes or no, selection, multiple choice, checkbox, date, or number answers. You can mark questions as required. Closed questions can also be configured as knockout questions with an ideal answer, so use that setting only for a clear role-related requirement.

Ask only questions that help you assess this role.
Avoid screening questions that ask for information unrelated to the work.
Use required documents when a CV, cover letter, portfolio, references, or certificates are genuinely needed.
Check that a candidate can understand what the question is asking before you publish it.

Review the candidate job searchCheck the public side of the job bank after publishing so the role reads as intended.

Step five

Choose the application route, review, and publish

The settings step supports an application deadline, an external application URL, and required documents. The current form does not present employer email forwarding as an available setting, so do not tell candidates to email an address that is not part of the published application route. If you use an external application system, add its current URL and check that it opens the correct role.

Before publishing, save a draft when the role is not ready, open the preview, and read the listing as a candidate. Safari Gigs also checks for likely duplicate jobs before publishing. Resolve an old or duplicate listing when needed, then publish only the version that represents the current opening.

Set a future deadline only when you know the date you want candidates to use.
Select the documents you will actually review.
Check the title, location, description, application route, and company name in preview.
Keep a published listing accurate and close or update it when the opening is no longer current.
