What Companies Should Know About GetroJobs

Congratulations! Your company is now featured on one of Getro’s automated job boards.



Let’s make sure your company is represented at its best so you get great traffic to your job openings. 


As the closest to your company information and job openings, you have the most reliable source of information for your company. Read more below to learn how to optimize your Getro company profile.


How jobs get posted on Getro job boards


Getro extracts job postings from the website on which companies post their jobs. In other words, the job source we have on file is the main source of truth for the jobs that show up automatically on the job board.  


So where did we get your job source URL? We have a team of job source experts that specialize in finding the most accurate source of jobs for any company in the Getro ecosystem. Sometimes, the network professional who invested in a job board to make your company's jobs more visible to their community may have suggested a source to us as well, but all sources are validated by our team of job source experts.

If you notice jobs pointing to an incorrect source, contact help@getro.com. We are happy to have suggestions about the most optimal job source URL for your company's jobs, but we will do our own validation of any job source suggestions before implementing them.


Where you post your jobs matters


Most often the most reliable place for job postings is a page on the actual company website. Likely a "Careers" page, a “Work for Us”, or “Join our Team” page.


Some companies may not have a careers page yet and post their jobs on one of the many job posting sites, such as LinkedIn, Indeed, etc... Getro updates from those sites well (although not as reliably as from careers pages). However, we've found that once a company puts up a jobs page on their website, they may forget to take down the jobs from the jobs posting site (the Monster, Indeed, etc…), which can result in duplicate postings on the job board.  Getro is working on technology to easily detect those changes but it is best to proactively let us know.

Tell Getro when you change where you post your jobs. This includes adopting an Application Tracking System or switching to a different one.


How you post your jobs matters


To ensure daily refreshes of job openings, Getro relies on jobs posted according to the job posting industry standards (used by ATS and other job posting platforms). 


Industry-standard job postings recommended HTML structure is available at schema.org/JobPosting, or check out Google's explanation.


If your company is not currently using an ATS, we highly recommend you invest in one. If your web team manually posts jobs on a web page, make sure they are aware of those standards. 


If you have no one with HTML coding skills, we recommend you post your jobs directly through the Getro platform, using our job posting feature. That way your jobs stay up-to-date on the job board.


Occasionally, we see companies reuse the same web page URL for different job postings (eg. the same job title, but posted a year or two apart). This practice, while seemingly effective, negatively impacts the job board analytics the network professional relies on to monitor job seekers' traffic, so be sure to give each job its own unique URL.
