Available Job Portal Structure Permutations

JobAdder offers four distinct job portal structure configurations. Below, we detail each option to help you choose the most suitable structure for your needs. When you've identified the right configuration, simply copy the structure and contact the JobAdder support team to implement it for your portal.



1. Simple Location Structure

- Application Email 

- Rate Type - (Values: Hourly Rate, Daily Rate, Weekly Rate, Monthly Rate, Annual Salary)

Key Considerations

  • Salary Definition Feature:When included, allows you to:
    • Define salaries specifically for job adverts
    • Choose from multiple rate types
    • Set different salary information from what appears in internal job orders
    • Select appropriate currency
  • Location Structures:
    • Simple Location: Best for focused geographic areas
    • Location and Sub-location: Enables hierarchy (e.g., Country/State → City/Town)


How to Implement

  1. Review the four structure options above
  2. Copy the structure that best suits your needs
  3. Contact the JobAdder support team with your chosen structure
  4. Our team will implement the selected configuration for your job portal


Example Implementation

For reference, the video demonstrates how these structures appear in practice. For instance, a portal using a Location and Sub-location structure might display:

  • Primary locations (states/countries) on the left
  • Sub-locations (cities/towns) nested underneath
  • Job listings filtered accordingly


Need Help Choosing?

Consider these questions:

  • Do you need to advertise jobs across multiple geographic areas?
  • Do you need to display different salary information in job adverts versus internal records?
  • How detailed does your location filtering need to be?

If you're unsure which structure best suits your needs, our support team is happy to discuss your requirements and recommend the most appropriate configuration.
