Submitting a Job Vacancy Form
Tips and assistance for submitting a job vacancy.
The title of the advertised job. Keep it short, no more than 6-7 words.
The heading, organisation and the first couple of lines of the description are displayed on the "Current Job Vacancies" page, so make these entries concise and explanatory.
The full name or a truncated plain language version of your organisation. Avoid acronyms unless they are very well known.
Town, city or location where the job is based.
The closing date for job applications. Your advertisement will be automatically removed after this date.
A description of the position advertised.. Try and get as much information as possible into the opening sentence (which is displayed on the "Current Job Vacancies" page). Avoid repeating information already in Heading, Organisation or other parts of the form.
Example
"Full-time paid position for qualified graphic designer with national environmental organisation..."
followed by more details is better than opening with:
"An exciting position available for someone who wants to work in the community and non-profit sector and is interested in working in a national organisation committed to equal employment opportunities..."
The name of the person who can answer enquiries about the job advertised.
A post office box or street address for purchases or enquiries.
A number for job seeker's enquiries. You can include extensions and more than one phone number. Don't forget the STD code.
The e-mail contact for applications and further information.
An address where more information about the advertised job can be found. Link directly to the page with information about the product (eg a vacancies or notices page) rather than just the home page of your organisation. "Http://" at the beginning of the website address is inserted automatically and should NOT be included in your entry.
Name of the person or organisation submitting the advertisement.
Careful! once submitted you will be able to view your advertisement text, but you cannot edit it at this stage - so check carefully before submitting. This view does not show paragraph breaks, and does not show your website address as a live link, but these will format automatically in the final version.
Advertisements will be automatically removed after the closing date. If you want to remove an advertisement earlier than this contact us.
